05 CLEANING AND MAINTAINING
CLEANING THE GREASE FILTER
Your microwave oven has two metal reusable grease filters. The grease filters should be removed and
cleaned at least once a month, or as required.
To avoid risk of personal injury or property damage, do not operate the oven hood without filters in
place.
1. To remove the filter, slide it to the left (or right) using the
tab.
2. Soak the grease filter in hot water and a mild detergent.
Rinse well and shake to dry. Brushing the filter lightly can
remove embedded dirt.
Do not use ammonia or put the grease filter in the
microwave oven. The aluminum will darken.
3. To return the filter to its position, slide it into the frame slot on the left (or right), then push it
upwards and to the right (or left) to lock it.
