Cleaning And Maintenance - Best WPP9 Mode D'emploi

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

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 impeller
should also be replaced.
Grease Filter
The grease fi lters should be cleaned frequently. Use a warm detergent solution. Grease
fi lter are dishwasher safe.
Clean all-metal fi lters in the dishwasher using a non-phosphate detergent. Discoloration
of the fi lter may occur if using phosphate detergents, or as a result of local water condi-
tions - but this will not aff ect fi lter performance. This
discoloration is not covered by the warranty. See
"INSTALL FILTERS" section for removal and instal-
lation instructions.
Drip Tray
The drip tray should be cleaned once a month or
as needed. To remove the drip tray, fi rst remove the
baffl e grease fi lters. Unscrew the thumbscrews and
grasp both ends of the drip tray. Gently lift the drip
tray up until the bottom of it clears the track. Pull
the drip tray forward, being careful not to spill the
contents, and move it to a nearby trash receptacle.
To clean the drip tray, drain and wipe all excess
grease with a dry paper towel. Wash with warm
soapy water or in the dishwasher. Dry with a clean
cloth. To replace the drip tray, lift it up and into
the track on the hood. Reinstall thumbscrews and
baffl e grease fi lters.
Non-ducted Recirculation Filter
The non-ducted recirculation fi lter should be
changed every 6 months. Replace more often if your cooking style generates extra grease,
such as frying and wok cooking. See "INSTALL FILTERS" section for removal and installa-
tion instructions.
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, fl uoride, iodide, bromide will deteriorate surfaces rap-
idly.
• 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.
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 construc-
tion/renovation, cover the range hood to
make sure no dust sticks to the stainless
steel surface.
