MAINTENANCE
For the optimal level of operation, clean the range hood surface and baffles regularly.
To Clean Hood Surface
CAUTION: NEVER USE ABRASIVE CLEANERS, PADS, OR CLOTHS.
***Regular care will help preserve its fine appearance.
1.Use only mild soap or detergent solutions. Dry surfaces using soft cloth.
2.If hood looks splotchy (stainless steel hood), use a stainless steel cleaner to clean the surface of the hood. Avoid getting cleaning solution onto or into the control panel. Follow directions of the stainless steel cleaner. Caution: Do not leave on too long as this may cause damage to hood finish. Use soft towel to wipe off the cleaning solution, gently rub off any stubborn spots. Use dry soft towel to dry the hood.
3.DO NOT allow deposits to accumulate or remain on the hood.
4.DO NOT use ordinary steel wool or steel brushes. Small bits of steel may adhere to the surface and cause rusting.
5.DO NOT allow salt solutions, disinfectants, bleaches, or cleaning compounds to remain in contact with stainless steel for extended periods. Many of these compounds contain chemicals, which may be harmful. Rinse with water after exposure and wipe dry with a clean lint free cloth.
To Clean Baffle Filters
CAUTION: DRAIN BAFFLE FILTERS BEFORE OIL WILL OVERFLOW.
1.Remove the baffle filters.
2.Using a sponge, wash with warm soapy water. Dry completely before returning into place.
(Note: Baffle Filters are top rack dishwasher safe.)
