T he Exhaust Fe ature
The exhaust hood feature on your microwave oven is
equipped with two metal filters which collect grease. When
the fan is operaitg, air is drawn up through the filters and is
then discharged through the venting to the outside or
through the charcoal filters if not vented to the outside.
R eusable Grease Filters
The reusable grease filters should be cleaned at least once a
month. Never operate the microwave withour the filters in
place. In situations where flaming might occur on surfaces
below the hood, filters will stop the entry of flames into the
unit.
To Re m ove Grease Filter
To remove grease filter, grasp the “finger hold” on the
filter and slide to the rear. Then pull filter downward and to
the front. The filter will drop out.
To clean Grease Filter
To clean grease filters, soak and then agitate filter in
solution of hot water and detergent. Do not use ammonia
or ammonia products because they will darken the metal.
Light brushing can be used to remove embedded dirt.
Rinse, shake and remove moisture before replacing.
To Replace Grease Filter
To replace grease filter, slide the filter in the frame slot on
the back of the opening. Pull filter upward and to the front
to lock into place.
