MAINTENANCE
For the optimal level of operation, clean the range hood surface and baffles regularly.
To Clean Hood Surface
CAUTION: NEVER USE ABRASIVE CLEANERS, PADS, OR CLOTHS.
*** Regular care will help preserve its fine appearance.
1. Use only mild soap or detergent solutions. Dry surfaces using soft cloth.
2. If hood looks splotchy (stainless steel hood), use an orange base cleaner to clean the surface of
the hood. Avoid cleaner to get on the control switches. Only spread a light coating over the
surface of the hood and leave on for a few minutes (do not leave on too long or this may cause
damage to hood finish). Use soft towel to wipe off the cleaning solution, gently rubs any stubborn
spots. Use a slightly damp towel to get rid of any cleaning solution. Use dry soft towel to dry the
hood.
3. To bring the glow back into a stainless steel finish, use a stainless steel cleaner.
4. DO NOT allow deposits to remain for long periods of time.
5. DO NOT use ordinary steel wool or steel brushes. Small bits of steel may adhere to the surface
causing rust.
6. DO NOT allow salt solutions, disinfectants, bleaches, or cleaning compounds to remain in contact
with stainless steel for extended periods. Many of these compounds contain chemicals, which
may be harmful. Rinse with water after exposure and wipe dry with a clean cloth.
To Clean Baffle Filters & Oil Tunnel
CAUTION: DRAIN BAFFLE FILTERS AND OIL TUNNEL BEFORE OIL WILL OVERFLOW.
1. Remove the baffle filters and oil tunnel.
2. Using a sponge, wash with warm soapy water. Dry completely before returning into place.
(Note: Baffle Filters are top rack dishwasher safe.)
