For your

power off at the service panel and lock the service
panel to prevent power from being switched on
accidentally. If the service panel cannot be locked,
fasten a tag or prominent warning label to the
panel.
Metal
grease
filters
The metal filters trap grease released by foods on
the cooktop. The filters also help prevent flames
(from food, grease) from damaging the inside of the
hood.
For this reason, the filters must ALWAYS be in place
when the hood is used. The grease filters should be
cleaned every 6 months, or as needed.
T o remove:
Support the filter with one hand while pulling down
filter clip with the other. Pull the filter down and out.
To replace:
1. Tip the filter into the back tab slots and lift up.
2. While maintaining slight upward pressure on
filter, open clip and press into place with two
hands.
To clean, swish the filter in hot soapy water and
rinse in clean water or wash it in the dishwasher.
Do not use abrasive cleansers.
