Reusable Grease Filters
The reusable grease filters should be cleaned at least once a month. Never operate the microwave without the filters in place. In situations where flaming might occur on surfaces below the hood, filters will stop the entry of flames into the unit.
To clean Grease Filter
To clean grease filters, soak and then agitate filter in solution of hot water and detergent. Do not use ammonia or ammonia products because they will darken the metal. Light brushing can be used to remove embedded dirt. Rinse, shake and remove moisture before replacing.
To Replace Grease Filter
To replace grease filter, slide the filter in the frame slot on the back of the opening. Pull filter upward and to the front to lock into place.
