Hood and Filter Cleaning
SURFACE MAINTENANCE:
Do not use corrosive detergents, abrasive detergents or oven cleaners.
Do not use any product containing chlorine bleach or any product containing chloride.
Do not use steel wool or abrasive scrubbing pads which will scratch and damage surface.
Cleaning Stainless Steel
Clean periodically with warm soapy water and clean cotton cloth or micro fiber cloth. Always rub in the
direction of the stainless steel grain. To remove heavier grease build up use a liquid degreaser detergent.
After cleaning use a non-abrasive stainless steel polish/cleaners, to polish and buff out the stainless luster
and grain. Always scrub lightly, with clean cotton cloth or micro fiber cloth and buff in the direction of the
stainless steel grain.
Cleaning Black Stainless Steel
Clean periodically with warm soapy water and clean cotton cloth or micro fiber cloth. To remove heavier
grease build up use a liquid degreaser detergent.
Due to a built-in layer of protective anti-smudge coating, do not use stainless steel polish/cleaners to buff
out black stainless steel.
Aluminum Mesh Filters
The aluminum mesh filters installed by the factory are intended to filter out residue and grease from
cooking. They need not be replaced on a regular basis but are required to be kept clean.
Remove and clean by hand or in dishwasher using a non-phosphate detergent. Discoloration of the filter
may occur if using phosphate detergents, or as a result of local water conditions - but this will not affect
filter performance. This discoloration is not covered by the warranty. Spray degreasing detergent and leave
to soak if heavily soiled.
Dry filters and re-install before using hood.
Removing Aluminum Mesh Filters
1. Pull down on filter latch to release filter tabs
