Vent Fan
The vent fan has a metal reusable grease
filter.
Models that recirculate air back into the
room also use a charcoal filter.

Reusable Grease Filter
The reusable grease filter traps grease
released by foods on the cooktop. It
also prevents flames from foods on the
cooktop from damaging the inside of
the microwave.
For this reason, the filter must ALWAYS
be in place when the hood is used. The
grease filter should be cleaned once a
month, or as needed.
