Maintenance Tips
-
Power off before cleaning: Always switch off or unplug the hood before cleaning or servicing to avoid electric shock.
-
Clean the mesh grease filter monthly: Remove the anodized aluminum mesh filter, wash with warm soapy water or in a dishwasher (low temperature), and dry completely before reinstalling.
-
Wipe exterior surfaces gently: Use a soft cloth with mild detergent to clean the white finish and control panel; avoid steel wool, abrasive pads, or harsh cleaners.
-
Use hood before and after cooking: Turn the blower on before high‑smoke cooking and leave it running a few minutes afterward to clear residual fumes and odors.
-
Check ventilation/ducting: Ensure ducts are clear, properly sized, and have minimal bends; if using recirculation mode, replace charcoal filters as recommended.
-
Inspect performance regularly: Look for reduced airflow or unusual noise, which may indicate filter cleaning or duct inspection is needed.
-
Protect the white finish: Wipe up grease or splatter promptly and dry surfaces after cleaning to maintain appearance.
