OPERATION AND CARE OF UNIT
CARE OF FILTERS CARE OF FAN MOTOR:
A. ALUMINUM FILTER: For greatest efficiency, the
permanent type aluminum filter should be removed and
cleaned periodically.
To clean, the filter should be soaked in hot water and
detergent, then thoroughly rinsed. The aluminum filter
can be cleaned in a dishwasher.
Fan motor has life time sealed bearings that never need
oiling under normal usage. A few drops on each bearing
after three years of heavy usage will prolong the motor
life. Clean motor with a damp cloth and grease cutting
detergent when a heavy coating of grease has
accumulated.
B. CHARCOAL FILTER: This filter should be
inspected periodically and when it becomes saturated,
should be replaced. There are no effective means of
reactivating charcoal filters.
CARE OF EXTERIOR SURFACES:
Your range hood is a beautifully finished addition to your
kitchen and requires only the care you give your range to
preserve its lasting beauty. Clean with a mild detergent to
preserve finish. DO NOT use abrasive cleaners.
LIGHTS:
Do not use bulb larger than 60 watts in light socket.
