Replacing Filters
The grease filters should be removed and cleaned at least once a
month. The charcoal filter cannot be washed and should be
replaced every six to twelve months. Do not operate the
microwave oven without the filters in place. See “Assistance or
Service” to reorder filters. See “General Cleaning” for cleaning
instructions.
To Remove:
1. Unplug microwave oven or disconnect power.
2. Remove each of the grease filters by pushing the back of the
filter up, grasping the tab, and sliding the filter to the back.
Pull tab down until the filter drops out.
3. Remove charcoal filters by pushing the filter to the right until
the left side of the filter slides off the left lower lip. Swing the
left side of the filter down and slide out.
To Replace:
1. Replace charcoal filters by positioning the filter at the left of
the opening, between the upper and lower lips. Swing the
filter up against the upper lip. Slide filter to the right while
pushing it up against the upper lip. The filter will now be held
in position between the lips.
2. Replace grease filters by inserting the end without the tab
into the frame. Swing other side up and slide into position.
3. Plug in microwave oven or reconnect power.
WARNING
Electrical Shock Hazard
Disconnect power before removing filters.
Replace all panels before operating.
Failure to do so can result in death or
electrical shock.
