14. CARE
Baffle Filters
The baffle filters should be cleaned frequently. Use a warm detergent solution. Wash more often if your cooking style generates greater
grease like frying foods or wok cooking.
Remove baffle filters by pushing them towards the side of the hood and rotating filters downward. Baffle filters are dishwasher safe. Allow
filters to dry completely before reinstalling them in the hood.
Clean all-metal filters in the dishwasher using a non-phosphate detergent. Discoloration of the filter may occur if using phosphate detergent
or as a result of local water conditions—but this will not affect filter performance. This discoloration is not covered by the warranty.
Grease Drip Rail
The grease drip rail should be cleaned frequently. Lift it out from the hood and use a warm detergent solution. As for the baffle filters, wash
more often if your cooking style generates greater grease like frying foods or wok cooking. Allow grease drip rail to dry completely before
reinstalling it in the hood.
Blower Cleaning
Remove the filters in order to access the blowers. Vacuum blowers to clean. Do not immerse in water.
Hood cleaning
Stainless steel cleaning:
Do:
• Regularly wash with clean cloth or rag soaked with warm water
and mild soap or liquid dish detergent.
• Always clean in the direction of original polish lines.
• Always rinse well with clear water (2 or 3 times) after cleaning.
Wipe dry completely.
• You may also use a specialized household stainless steel
cleaner.
Avoid when choosing a detergent:
- Any cleaners that contain bleach will attack stainless steel.
- Any products containing: chloride, fluoride, iodide, bromide will deteriorate surfaces rapidly.
- Any combustible products used for cleaning such as acetone, alcohol, ether, benzol, etc., are highly explosive and should never be
used close to a range.
15. OPERATION
BLOWER
The blower is operated using 2 controls.
Use the on/off rocker switch (2) to start and stop the blower. When turned ON, the switch turns
red and the blower operates at the speed set by the speed control knob (1).
Turn the speed control knob clockwise to increase blower speed – counterclockwise to decrease
speed.
COOKTOP LIGHTING (HALOGEN)
Use the on/off rocker switch (3) to turn the halogen lights ON or OFF.
HEAT SENTRY™
This hood is equipped with a Heat Sentry thermostat. This thermostat is a device that will turn
on the blower if it senses excessive heat above the cooking surface.
1) If blower is OFF - it turns blower ON to the last selected speed.
2) If blower is already ON speed will remain the same.
The HEAT SENTRY can start the blower during a range top fire or other excessive heat situations even if the hood
is turned off. In this case, it is impossible to turn the blower OFF using control panel switch. To stop the blower, do
it from the main electrical panel.
When the temperature level drops to normal, the blower will return to its original setting.
Don't:
• Use any steel or stainless steel wool or any other scrapers to
remove stubborn dirt.
• Use any harsh or abrasive cleansers.
• Allow dirt to accumulate.
• Let plaster dust or any other construction residues reach the
hood. During construction/renovation, cover the hood to make
sure no dust sticks to stainless steel surface.
