Proper maintenance of the Range Hood will assure proper performance of the
unit.
MOTOR
The motor is permanently lubricated and never needs oiling. If the motor
bearings make excessive or unusual noise, replace the motor with the exact
service motor. The fan blade should also be replaced.
GREASE FILTERS
The grease filters should be cleaned frequently. Use a warm dishwashing
detergent solution. Grease filters are dishwasher safe.
Clean all-metal filters in the dishwasher using a non-phosphate detergent.
Discoloration of the filters may occur if using phosphate detergents, or as a
result of local water conditions - but this will not affect filter performance. This
discoloration is not covered by the warranty. To minimize or prevent
discoloration, hand wash filters using a mild detergent.
FAN BLADE
The fan blade should be cleaned frequently. Use a clean cloth soaked with
warm detergent solution.
ACTIVATED CARBON FILTER
The activated carbon filter should be changed every 3 months depending on
the conditions of use. Replace more often if your cooking style generates extra
grease, such as frying and wok cooking. These filters are not washable and
cannot be restored. Refer to installation instructions included with activated
carbon filter.
