- MAINTENANCE OF THE HOOD -
----SAFETY WARNING----
INTERIOR OF HOOD MAY HAVE VERY SHARP EDGES, PLEASE
WEAR PROTECTIVE GLOVES IF YOU HAVE TO OPEN THE
HOOD FOR CLEANING OR SERVICING.
Cleaning
To clean the hood surface, use only mild soap or detergent solutions. Dry up surfaces using soft
cloth. CAUTION: Never use abrasive cleaners, pads, or cloths.
If the hood looks splotchy (stainless steel hood), use an orange base cleaner to clean the surface
of the hood (make sure the cleaner does not get on any control switches). Spread a light coating
over the surface of the hood and leave on for a few minutes (do not leave on too long or there
might be damage to the hood finish). Use a soft towel to wipe off the cleaning solution, gently
rubbing any stubborn spots. Use a slightly damp towel to get rid of any cleaning solution. Use a
dry soft towel to dry the hood.
To bring the glow back into a stainless steel finish, use a stainless steel cleaner.
To clean hood fans, turn on high speed and spray a mild degreaser into the fans. Liquid residue
will accumulate in the oil containers located at the back of the safety screen. These slide easily
in and out for cleaning. The round transparent holders attached to the fan cover can be
unscrewed (turn counterclockwise) for cleaning. (To replace, just screw back in turning
clockwise until it clicks into place.) To clean the fan safety screen, remove the screw (leave in a
safe place), and slide safety screen out. Both oil containers and fan safety screen should be
washed with warm soapy water and completely dry before returning in place. (Both are top rack
dishwasher safe.)
CAUTION: Never put your hand into the area housing the fan while the fan is operating.
For the most efficient operation of your range hood, clean the range hood surface, fans and
optional filters regularly.
CAUTION: Drain oil holders before oil can overflow.
