Maintenance Tips
-
Clean filters regularly: Remove the dishwasher‑safe aluminum mesh filters and wash them every 4–6 weeks (or more with heavy cooking) to keep airflow strong and grease buildup low.
-
Wipe stainless & glass surfaces weekly: Use a soft microfiber cloth with warm, soapy water; wipe with the grain on stainless and gently on glass to avoid streaks and scratches.
-
Avoid harsh cleaners & abrasives: Do not use bleach, corrosive chemicals, or abrasive pads — these can damage stainless and glass finish.
-
Dry completely before reinstalling: Ensure filters and surfaces are fully dry before putting them back to prevent odors or moisture spots.
-
Use hood during & after cooking: Run the hood while cooking and for a few minutes afterwards to reduce grease and smoke accumulation inside the ducts.
-
Check lights & controls: Wipe LED light covers and test controls; replace LED bulbs with manufacturer‑approved ones as needed.
