Caring for the filters
Do not allow grease and soil to build up
in the grease filters. It will decrease the
exhaust fan efficiency. Remove and clean
grease filters at least once a month. When
you have removed a grease filter or a
charcoal filter remember to replace the filter
before you operate the hood.
NOTE: If your microwave hood combination
is installed to recirculate air, the charcoal
filter (available from your authorized service
company, Part No. 4359416) should be
installed. The charcoal filter cannot be
cleaned and should be replaced every
6 to 12 months.

Grease filters:
1. To remove grease filters, slide each filter
to the side. Pull filters downward and push
to the other side. The filter will drop out.
2. Soak grease filters in hot water and a mild
detergent. Scrub and swish to remove
embedded dirt and grease. Rinse well and
shake to dry. Do not clean filters with
ammonia, corrosive cleaning agents
such as lye-based oven cleaners, or
place them in a dishwasher. The filters
will turn black or could be damaged.
3. To replace grease filters, slide filter in
the frame slot on one side of the opening.
