Maintenance Tips

• Exterior Cleaning Weekly – Wipe the stainless‑steel surface with warm, soapy water and a soft cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners, steel wool, or harsh chemicals that can scratch and damage the finish.

• Interior Canopy Cleaning – Regularly wipe the interior canopy with a mild degreaser or dish soap to remove cooking grease buildup that can reduce airflow and performance.

• Grease Capture / Filterless Care – This model features a patented filterless design that makes it easier to clean (no traditional filters to wash), but you should still keep surfaces inside clear of heavy grease.

• Blower & Fan Inspection – At least once a year, inspect and wipe down the blower housing and fan area (power off first) to prevent grease buildup that can affect efficiency.

• Light Bulb Maintenance – Turn off power and let bulbs cool before replacing; clean light covers to maintain good illumination.

• Post‑Cooking Ventilation – After heavy cooking, run the hood for a few extra minutes to help clear lingering steam, smoke, and airborne grease before cleaning.

• Professional Service as Needed – If airflow decreases significantly or unusual noises occur, have a qualified technician inspect and service internal components.
