1. This method requires a suitable, leakproof container, such as a tall trash bin, recycle bin,

plastic tote, or the

GILES soak tank*

. Container must be large enough to hold the cell

along with enough degreasing solution to submerge it completely for soaking, regardless
of orientation.

2. Fill container with fresh water to a level that will basically cover the cell. Measure the water as

container is filled and note the quantity. Add

continued

The factory

recommended product to use for cleaning EAC cells in this manner is

Simple Green® Pro

‐

HD.

It is a

readily available, biodegradable, non

toxic degreasing cleaner that is safe on aluminum. It performs well to clean

the cell when diluted at a

1:12 ratio

(e.g. 1/2 gal. cleaner to 6 gals ambient water)

DO NOT use DISHWASHING DETERGENTS or CORROSIVE CLEANERS as they can contain ingredients that may
damage the metal and cause failure or unsatisfactory performance. Such damages are not covered by the
factory warranty.

3. After preparing a quantity of degreaser solution sufficient to completely cover the cell,

hold it by the contact plate

frame, or handle and carefully place it into the solution. Be

sure that it is fully submerged ... add water if needed.

4. Allow cell to soak for approximately

20 minutes (no more than 30 mins)

, then lift it

slightly and briefly agitate it in the solution to help dislodge grease residue.

5. Carefully remove cell from container and follow

Steps 4 thru 6

as detailed in the previous

section

NOTE:

Degreasing solution can be used multiple times ... place a suitable cover on container when not in use to prevent
contamination. Discard & mix new solution when a greasy film remains visible, floating on the liquid.

E.A.C. Collector Cell Cleaning Timer

The hood features an

E.A.C.

Collector Cell Cleaning Timer

. It is designed to help users maintain a proper cleaning

routine for the collector cells. Timely cleaning is essential to ensure that hood continues to effectively remove
grease

laden cooking vapors.

Timer alerts user that it is time to clean the collector cells

(or alternatively, exchange with ones cleaned previously)

If the task is not completed within a preset allowed time, timer expires, an alarm is sounded & power to cooking
appliances is shutdown. Alarm condition exist until cleaning

has been completed. After filter maintenance is

performed, the alarm condition is reset & timer automatically begins a new countdown.

Should the alarm condition occur during an inopportune time or while cooking is in progress, a

SNOOZE

feature is

provided to temporarily the timer for a short period. Timer indicators &

[SNOOZE]

button are located on the

control panel.
