Using the hood controls.

Throughout this manual, features and appearance may vary from your model.

FAN Control

Turn or press (according to your model) the FAN
speed control to LO, MED, HI or BOOST, as needed.

helps keep the kitchen comfortable and less
humid. It also reduces cooking odors and soiling
moisture that create a frequent need for cleaning.

LIGHT Control

Turn or press (according to your model) the
LIGHT control to BRIGHT for bright light while
cooking. Turn or press to NITE for use as a night
light.

FAN ON Light

The FAN ON indicator light will glow when the
fan is turned on.

Your model will have one of the above type of controls.

Care and cleaning of the vent hood.

Be sure electrical power is off and all surfaces are cool before cleaning or servicing any part of the
vent hood.

The hood has 2 metal reusable
grease filters.

The metal filters trap grease
released by foods on the cooktop.
They 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
should be cleaned once a month,
or as needed.

To remove,

slide the filters to

the rear using the tab. Pull them
down and out.

To replace,

slide the filters in

the frame slot on the back of
the opening. Push up and back
and then to the front to lock
into place.

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. They may
also be cleaned in an automatic
dishwasher.

NOTE: Before cleaning, make sure the
charcoal filters, if present, are unclipped
and removed. See the Charcoal Filters
section.

Reusable Metal Grease Filters

If it ever becomes necessary to replace
the metal grease filters, they may be
ordered from your GE supplier.
