Never use metal pads, chemical, abrasive material or stiff brush to clean the appliance. Metallic anti-grease filter: The filter collects grease, smoke and dust so the filter is directly affecting the efficiency of the range hood. If not cleaned, the grease residue (potential flammable) will saturate on the filter. Clean it with household cleaning detergent. The filter is dishwasher safe. Recirculator: clean the ventilation openings on the top sides. Charcoal filters: • If the model is not vented to the outside, the air will be recirculated through disposable charcoal filters that help remove smoke and odors. • The charcoal filters cannot be cleaned, they must be replaced regularly (depending on range hood usage). • NOTE: Do not rinse or put charcoal filters in a dishwasher. • NOTE: Charcoal filters are not included with the range hood.
