•
Tension clips at the front of the hood hold the
filters in place.
•
You can easily access the main power switch
when the filter beneath it is removed.
•
In performing this procedure, take care not to
bump the switch or scratch the grease channel
along the hood’s bottom-rear edge.
•
If you cannot reach the filters from the floor,
Dacor recommends you use a stepstool or similar
sturdy device to help you reach up into the hood.
