CARING FOR THE FILTERS
The grease filters should be removed and cleaned often, at least once a month.
NOTE: If your microwave hood combination is installed to recirculate air, the charcoal filter
(Part No. 5230Wl AOOO3A) is available from Sears by calling 1-800-4-MY-HOME ®.
The charcoal filter cannot be cleaned and should be replaced every 6 to 12 months.
Grease filters (Part No. 2B72705B):
1. Unplug microwave oven or disconnect power.
2. To remove grease filters, slide each filter to
the side. Pull filters downward and push to the
other side. The filter will drop out.
3. Soak grease filters in hot water and a mild
detergent. Scrub and swish to remove

dishwasher. The filters will turn black or could
be damaged.
