Maintenance Tips

• Clean stainless steel baffle filters every 2–4 weeks: Dishwasher-safe professional baffle filters capture high grease loads and are key to maintaining strong 600 CFM performance and airflow efficiency.
• Wipe interior and exterior weekly: Use a soft microfiber cloth with mild, non-abrasive cleaner to preserve the seamless stainless steel finish and prevent grease buildup inside the insert cavity.
• Maintain 6" duct system (600 CFM models): Ensure the 6" round duct and backdraft damper stay clear to preserve suction power and reduce noise over time.
• Keep hidden knob controls grease-free: Clean retractable rotary knobs gently so blue backlighting and 4-speed control remain responsive and smooth.
• Clean LED lighting covers regularly: Prevents grease film buildup and ensures consistent illumination over the cooking surface.
• Inspect blower area periodically: Remove grease accumulation to maintain stable airflow, reduce vibration, and extend motor life.
• Use recirculation/carbon filters properly (if installed): Replace carbon filters every 3–6 months to maintain odor control efficiency.
• Run hood 2–5 minutes after cooking: Helps clear residual smoke and steam, reducing long-term grease buildup inside filters and ducting.
