Cleaning the Filters
Clean the lters and surrounding areas regularly to pre-
vent grease build-up.
The CLEAN FILTER key indicator light will
illuminate after 40 hours of blower use to
remind you to clean the lters (push the
CLEAN FILTER key to reset). The lters
may need to be cleaned more often based
upon the type and amount of cooking.
Check the lters regularly.
To clean the filters:
Raise the vent to the “up” position to clean the lters.•
Remove the grill as described in the • Grill Cleaning
section.
The lters are positioned side by side inside the vent •
intake. When properly installed, the tops of the lters
lean against the rear intake panel and the lter bot-
toms rest in a slot attached to the front intake panel.
Remove one lter at a time by gently grasping the top
center of the lter and lifting it up and out.
Clean the lters by hand washing them in hot water •
with a mild detergent solution. You may also put them
in a dishwasher. Clean the intake panel also (see fol-
lowing page).
Make sure the lters are dry before carefully reinstall-•
ing them.
Reinstall the intake grill. •

Remove the grill with the vent in the raised position. •
Gently grasp the grill on both ends. Lift it up, then
rotate the bottom of the grill out of the lower groove.
Clean it regularly. Hand wash it in hot water with a
mild detergent solution. Set the grill on a at surface
and wipe only in the direction of the grill grain.

right edges of the grill with the vertical grill guides
and insert the upper edge of the grill into the slot in
the top cap. Pivot and drop the bottom of the grill into
the lower locating slot.
