Install the baffle filters along with any spacer bars that are required by inserting
the top of the filter into the top channel of the hood, then slide the bottom of the
filter into the bottom channel. The filters have a top and a bottom. The bottom of the
filter will have small drain holes. These holes must be facing down towards the
grease trough to be effective. In models with spacers, it is easiest to install the
spacer(s) first and the grease filters last
(Figure 22).
