Maintenance Tips
- Clean dishwasher-safe mesh filters every 2–4 weeks (more often with heavy cooking) to maintain strong 400 CFM airflow and reduce grease buildup.
- Wipe stainless steel cylinder weekly using a soft microfiber cloth and non-abrasive stainless cleaner; always wipe with the grain to avoid streaks.
- Clean perimeter aspiration intake regularly to keep suction efficient and noise low.
- Run hood during cooking + 5–10 minutes after to fully remove smoke and odors before the unit retracts into the ceiling.
- Inspect retracting mechanism periodically to ensure smooth up/down motion; keep the moving track free of grease and dust.
- Check and clean internal fan area occasionally to prevent grease buildup that can reduce performance over time.
- Replace charcoal filters (if used in recirculating mode) as recommended to maintain odor control efficiency.
- Keep LED lights and electronic touch controls clean and dry to ensure reliable operation and responsiveness.
- Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive pads to protect the stainless steel finish and precision moving components.
- Use delay auto shut-off or 24-hour air mode when needed to maintain cleaner indoor air with less residue buildup.
