Maintenance Tips
-
Wipe Stainless Steel Exterior Weekly: Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent or stainless steel cleaner to remove fingerprints and grease; always wipe in the grain direction and avoid abrasive pads/steel wool.

Interior Surface Care: With power off, wipe interior surfaces after heavy cooking with a non‑abrasive degreaser or warm soapy water to reduce grease accumulation.

Inspect Ductwork & Air Path: Periodically check that ducts and vent openings are free of obstructions to maintain strong extraction performance (e.g., M600 or M1200 blower airflow).
-
Check Lights & Hardware: Replace bulbs when needed and tighten any loose screws to keep lights bright and components secure.
-
Run Fan After Cooking: Let the fan run for 5–10 minutes after cooking to clear lingering smoke and odors.
