securité

Before servicing or cleaning unit, switch power
off at service panel and lock the service
disconnecting means to prevent power from
being switched on accidentally. When the
service disconnecting means cannot be locked,
securely fasten a prominent warning device,
such as a tag, to the service panel.

Avant de réparer ou de nettoyer votre appareil,
débranchez le courant au niveau du panneau
de service et verrouillez les mécanismes de
débranchement de service pour éviter tout
branchement accidentel au courant. Si vous
ne pouvez pas verrouiller les mécanismes de
débranchement de service, attachez
soigneusement un avertissement bien visible,
comme une étiquette, au panneau de service.

Mesh grease
filters and
drip tray

(on some models)

Some models have 2 metal reusable grease
filters and drip tray.

The metal filters and drip tray trap grease
released by foods on the cooktop. The filters
also help prevent flaming foods on the cooktop
from damaging the inside of the hood.

For this reason, the filters must ALWAYS be in
place when the hood is used. The grease filters
and drip tray should be cleaned every 6 months,
or as needed.

To clean the drip tray,

drain and wipe all excess

grease with a dry paper towel. Wash with hot
soapy water. Dry with a clean cloth.

To clean the grease filters,

soak them and then

swish them around in hot water and detergent.
Don’t use ammonia or ammonia products
because they will darken the metal. Do not use
abrasives or oven cleaners. Light brushing can
be used to remove embedded dirt. Rinse, shake
and let them dry before replacing.

To remove:
Grasp the filter lock and pivot it open to
release. Pull the filter down and out.
Remove both filters. Grasp the drip tray,
on both sides, by the front edge and
carefully lift it up and out.

To replace:
1.

Place and seat the drip tray into the hood
track, making sure the rear tabs on the tray,
hook into the back slots in the hood track.

2.

Place the bottom of the filter in the lower
hood rail.

3.

Push the top of the filter back, open the
filter lock and snap it into place.
