Self Clean Feature
All Zephyr Range Hoods are filter-less and are designed with a self clean feature. The
centrifugal blower system automatically liquefies grease accumulated in its internal housing.
All systems are equipped with dishwasher safe grease containers for its self clean function.
Grease and residue from cooking are often automatically liquefied and can accumulate in the
containers from everyday use. Nevertheless, grease from cooking could also dry and
adhered in its internal housing. Running the self clean function periodically will flush out the
accumulated grease in the range hood’s internal housing.
Cleaning Frequency
Cleaning should be approximately once a month under normal use.
Detergent
Grease cutting detergent such as ‘409’ or its equivalent are recommended.
Safety Grill
Remove both safety grills for cleaning by
simply loosening Philips screws. Clean safety
grills in dishwasher under normal wash cycle.
WARNING: Use with extreme caution as both
safety grills are removed. Beware of blowers
catching on to hair, loose clothing, and fingers.
NEVER leave children unattended.
Self Clean
Turn both blowers on Low speed for cleaning.
For Hurricane series, simply set Timed Delay
Off to 5 minutes as indicated.

Fill residue containers ¼ full with water before cleaning or during regular use. This will
help to prevent grease from drying and tacking on cup surface.

Edges on stainless steel surface are exposed once shield is removed. Clean around
edges with extreme care and we recommend the use of latex cleaning gloves.
MAINTENANCE 6
With nozzle on ‘spray’, squirt ‘409’ detergent
directly onto blower blades 30-35 times.
Repeat with second blower. Allow self
cleaning to run for 5 minutes before switching
off. (If desired, spray water to rinse off detergent after
completion of the cleaning cycle and run for another few
minutes)
Remove residue containers by gently sliding
out with both hands. Clean in dishwasher
under normal wash cycle.

Replacing Lights
All light bulbs included are 40W appliance bulb. Replace with 60W bulbs if brighter
illumination are desired. Remove light shield according to instructions on page 6.
Warning: Edges on stainless steel surface are exposed once shield is removed. Replace
