Cleaning and Maintenance
Proper maintenance of the Range Hood will assure proper performance of the unit .
MOTORS
The motors are permanently lubricated and never need oiling . If the motor bearings make
excessive or unusual noise, replace the motor with the exact service motor . The fan wheel should
also be replaced .
GREASE FILTERS
The grease filters should be cleaned frequently . Use a warm dishwashing detergent solution .
Clean all-metal filters 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 .
NON-DUCTED RECIRCULATION FILTERS
The non-ducted recirculation filters should be changed every 3 to 6 months . Replace more often
if your cooking style generates extra grease, such as frying and wok cooking . Refer to installation
instructions included with non-ducted recirculation filters .
FAN WHEELS
The center of the fan wheels should be cleaned frequently . Use a clean cloth soaked with warm
detergent solution .
STAINLESS STEEL CLEANING

• 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 .
