Maintenance Tips

• Wipe Exterior Weekly: Clean the stainless‑steel surfaces with a soft cloth and mild detergent to remove grease and fingerprints; avoid abrasive pads or harsh cleaners to protect the finish.

• Clean Grease Areas Often: Although this model has a filterless Magic Lung® design, grease still collects inside — regularly wipe internal grease‑collection areas and blower housing with warm, soapy water to prevent buildup and maintain airflow.

• Inspect Ductwork: Ensure the duct and vent paths are clear of obstructions so the range hood vents effectively outside — good airflow keeps smoke and odors moving out of the kitchen.

• Check Lights & Hardware: Replace any burnt‑out bulbs and tighten loose screws to keep lighting bright and the hood secure.

• Run Fan After Cooking: Let the fan run for several minutes after cooking to clear lingering smoke, steam, and odors and reduce residue.
