MONTHLY

restarted by pressing and momentarily holding the top [START] portion of the Power Switch.

Door Interlock Test:
Start Hood. With Hood running, unlatch and slightly open the Filter Access Door.
Confirm Hood powers
OFF
when door is opened and the appliance under the Hood turns
OFF
, or will not
turn
ON
.
