Exhaust Feature
The Vent Fan
The exhaust fan has 2 metal reusable grease filters.
A charcoal filter can be used for removing smoke and odors in case the
fan is not vented outside.
Reusable Grease Filters
The metal filters trap grease released by foods on the cooktop. They
also prevent flames from foods on the cooktop from damaging the inside
of the microwave.
For this reason, the filters must ALWAYS be in place when the vent fan
is used. The grease filters should be cleaned once a month, or as
needed.
Removing and Cleaning the Filters
To remove, slide it to the left using the tab. Pull filter down and out.
To clean the grease filters, soak and then swish them around in hot
water and detergent.
Don’t use ammonia or ammonia products because they will darken the
metal.
Light brushing can be used to remove embedded dirt.
Rinse, shake and let them dry before replacing.
To replace, slide the filters in the frame slot on the left of the opening.
Pull up and to the right to lock into place.
Charcoal Filter
The charcoal filter cannot be cleaned. It must be replaced.
If the oven is installed on the wall (or cabinet) and not vented to the out-
side, the air will be recirculated through a disposable charcoal filter that
helps remove smoke and odors.
The charcoal filter should be replaced when it is noticeably dirty or dis-
colored (usually after 6 to 12 months, depending on hood usage).
Removing Charcoal Filter
To remove the charcoal filter, disconnect power at the main fuse or cir-
cuit breaker panel or pull the plug.
Remove the top grille by removing the 3 screws that hold it in place.
Slide the filter towards the front of the oven and remove it.
Screws
Remove 3 grille screws to remove the grill
