Maintenance
CAUTION: Never put your hand into the area
housing the fan while the fan is operating.
Proper maintenance of the range hood will assure
proper performance of the unit.
Grease or Baffle Filters
The grease filters and the bottom panel should be
cleaned frequently. The grease filters or baffle fil-
ters must be cleaned approximately once every 30
hours of operation.
Use a warm detergent solution. Grease or baffle
filters are dishwasher safe.
Tips: Soaking the filters into warm detergent for 1
hour before putting into dishwasher. Separate other
dishware when cleaning the filters.
Tips: Just put the filters into a boiling water pot with
detergent for 5 mins, then rinse.
Remove filter by pushing filter towards the
back of hood and rotating filter towards.
Baffle grease filters contain two layers of roll
formed baffles, equally spaced. Spacing creates an
air flow which causes grease to collect, drain down
the baffles and into collecting trough. Filters are
designed to prevent flame from passing through
the filter baffles, and are made to withstand differ-
ent temperature levels. Baffler filters are 10 times
durable than standard aluminum filters.
Some models are equipped with baffle filters. If you
want to buy the filters or replacement, please con-
tact your dealer or visit our website:

Non-ducted recirculation Charcoal filter
The charcoal filter should be changed approxi-
mately once every 120 hours of operation. The

HOOD CLEANING
Stainless steel is known for its ability to be a clean
surface that resists corrosion an rust. Dirt, dust and
grime, however, put stainless at risk for corrosion
and rust. Luckily, stainless steel responds well to
cleaning, never wearing out from excessive clean-
ing, as long as certain rules are followed.
1.Water and a cloth.
Routine cleaning can be ac-
complished by using warm water and a cloth. This
is the least risky option for cleaning stainless steel.
Dry with a towel or cloth to prevent water spots.
Wipe in the directions of the polish lines.
2. Mild detergent, (dish washing liquid) and
cloth.
For cleaning that needs more power, mild
detergent and warm water can do a great job with-
out damaging the stainless steel. Make sure you
rinse the surface thoroughly to prevent staining and
spotting. Towel dry to prevent water spots which
can be caused by minerals in water.
3. Glass cleaner for fingerprints.
Fingerprints are
one of the biggest complaints about stainless steel,
but can be taken care by using glass cleaner or
household ammonia. Rinse thoroughly and towel
dry. There are some newer types of finishes for
stainless steel that resist fingerprints, a must if your
pint-sized helpers leave their mark on your
stainless steel appliances.
4. Stainless Steel Cleaner.
If you’ve had staining
or scratching, or need to polish your stainless steel,
a stainless steel cleaner may be a good option.
Some of these cleaners and polishes can help
minimize scratching and remove stains. They also
can polish stainless steel surfaces nicely. Read the
directions on the stainless steel cleaner and test in
an inconspicuous spot. Be sure to rinse thoroughly
and towel dry.
Warning- When cleaning the hood, never spray
cleaning agent directly on the controls; spray it
on the cleaning cloth and wipe the control with
it. Spraying cleaning agent directly on the con-
trol will cause unexpected keyboard activation
.
Do not use
any steel or stainless steel wool or any
other scrapers to remove stubborn dirt.
Do not use
any harsh or abrasive cleanser.
Do not
allow dirt to accumulate.
Do not
let plaster dust or any construction resides
reach the hood. During construction or renovation,
cover the hood to make sure no dust sticks to
stainless steel surface.
AVOID : when choosing a detergent
-Any cleaners that contain bleach will attack
stainless steel.
-Any products containing:
chloride, fluoride, io-
dide, bromide
will deteriorate surfaces rapidly.
-Any
combustible products
used for cleaning
such as
acetone, alcohol, ether, benzoyl
, etc.,
are highly explosive and should never be used
close to a range.
