Maintenance Tips

• Clean SS Exterior: Wipe stainless steel surfaces regularly with warm, soapy water and a soft microfiber cloth; always dry to prevent water spots and preserve finish.

• Avoid Harsh Abrasives: Do not use corrosive detergents, steel wool, abrasive pads, bleach, or chloride products that can scratch and damage the surface.

• Baffle Filter Care: Remove and clean the professional baffle grease filters every 30 days (or more often with heavy cooking). They’re dishwasher‑safe on a low cycle or can be soaked in hot, soapy water.

• Clean Grease Tray: Empty and wash the grease tray when cleaning filters to prevent buildup and maintain airflow.

• LED Light Maintenance: Gently wipe LED light covers to keep illumination bright and effective.

• Check Vent Path: Periodically inspect duct openings for blockages to ensure peak ventilation performance.
