type aluminum filter should be removed and cleaned
periodically.

and thoroughly rrnsed. The aluminum filter can be cleaned in a
dishwasher.

under normal usage. A few drops on each bearing after three
years of heavy usage will prolong the motor life. Clean
motor
with a damp cloth and grease cutting detergent when a heavy
coating of grease has accumulated.
CARE OF EXTERIOR SURFACES:
Your range hood is a beautifully finished addition to your
kitchen and requires only the care you give your range to
preserve its lasting beauty. Clean with a mild detergent to
preserve finish. DO NOT use abrasive cleaners.
For most effective removal of smoke and odors, turn on fan at
beginning of cooking operation and allow to run until smoke
and odors are removed from room.
