WARNING
To avoid the risk of fire, electric shock or personal
injury:
• Turn off power to the hood at the circuit breaker panel
or fuse box before cleaning.
• Clean the hood only in the manner specified.
• Use only the types of cleaning solutions specified in
this manual.
• Thoroughly dry the filters immediately after cleaning.
• Turn off the cooktop or range and make sure that the
appliance and range hood are cool before cleaning.

CAUTION
Always wipe stainless steel (silver colored) surfaces with
the grain. To prevent scratching, do not use abrasive
cleaners or scrubbers on stainless steel or glass
surfaces.
Proper cleaning is necessary to ensure safe opera-
tion and maintain hood performance and appear-
ance. The frequency of cleaning should be adjusted
according to the type and amount of cooking. Best
results will be achieved by cleaning soiled compo-
nents as soon as possible.

of detergent or dishwashing soap and warm water.
Rinse and dry with a soft, lint-free cloth.
You may also use Dacor Stainless Steel Cleaner. Use
it according to the directions on the package.
Cleaning the Light Lens

light fixture lens. You can also clean it with Dacor
Cooktop Cleaning Creme. Use it according to the
