Care and Cleaning warning • Clean the vent only in the manner specified. • To avoid dangerous fumes or damage to your vent's surfaces, use only the types of cleaning solutions specified in this manual. • To avoid personal injury, turn off the range and vent and make sure all surrounding surfaces are cool before cleaning. • Always wipe stainless steel (silver colored) surfaces with the grain. To prevent scratching, do not use abrasive cleaners or scrubbers on stainless steel surfaces. • To avoid damage to the fan, do not reinstall damaged filters. • To avoid damage, do not clean the filters in a dishwasher. Grill Cleaning Cleaning the Filters • Secure the keypad (see facing page). • Remove the grill with the vent in the raised position. Gently grasp the grill on both ends. Lift it up, then rotate the bottom of the grill out of the lower groove. Clean it regularly. Hand wash it in hot water with a mild detergent solution. Set the grill on a flat surface and wipe only in the direction of the grill grain. • Do not use any cleaners containing ammonia as this will damage the anodized aluminum finish.
