FILTER

Ventilation System

The built-in ventilation system removes cooking vapors, odors
and smoke from foods prepared on your cooktop and grill.

• To operate the ventilation

system manually, push the
Vent Fan pad located on the
electronic control. Push once
for Low, push again for High
and a third time to turn the
fan Off.

• The ventilation system will operate automatically when the

grill element is in use.

• The fan can be used to remove strong odors from the

kitchen as when chopping onions near the fan.

Care and Cleaning of the
Ventilation System

Air Grille: The air grille lifts off easily. Wipe clean or wash in

dishwasher or sink with mild household detergents. To
prevent scratching the surface, do not use abrasive
cleaners or scrubbing pads.

Filter: Turn off ventilation system before removing. The filter

is a permanent type and should be cleaned when soiled.
Clean in sink with warm water and detergent or in
dishwasher.

IMPORTANT: DO NOT OPERATE SYSTEM WITHOUT
FILTER.
Filter should always be placed at an angle. As you
face the front of the range, the top of the filter should rest
against the left side of the vent opening. The bottom should
rest against the right side of the vent chamber at the
bottom. Important: If filter is flat against the fan wall,
ventilation effectiveness is reduced.

Ventilation Chamber: This area, which houses the filter,

should be cleaned in the event of spills or whenever it
becomes coated with a film of grease. It can be cleaned with
paper towel, damp cloth, or sponge and mild household
detergent or cleanser.

Important: The oven vent is located under the right side of
the air grille. When using or cleaning the oven, hot and
moist air may be noticed in this area. The area near the vent
may become hot enough to cause burns. Be careful not to
spill anything into this vent. The air grille must be
removed before the self-clean cycle.
