To Clean Filters, Filter Spacers, and
Grease Trays
Your hood has removable stainless steel filters, stainless
steel filter spacers, and stainless steel grease trays. They
must be cleaned when the filter light illuminates on the
control panel or whenever they collect grease. When used
over a grill, wok or other high grease applications, more
frequent cleaning may be required.
