Maintenance Tips

• Clean mesh grease filters every 2–4 weeks (more often for heavy cooking). They are dishwasher-safe—cleaning them regularly keeps airflow strong and prevents grease buildup.
• Wipe the painted gray stainless finish weekly using a soft microfiber cloth and non-abrasive cleaner; always wipe in the direction of the grain to avoid streaks or scratches.
• Keep LED lights and control panel clean and dry to maintain responsiveness and long-lasting performance.
• Check and clean the interior cavity periodically to remove hidden grease buildup that can reduce suction efficiency.
• Inspect ducting or recirculation setup every few months to ensure there are no blockages or airflow restrictions.
• Replace charcoal filters (if used in ductless mode) as recommended to maintain odor control performance.
• Run the hood during cooking and for a few minutes after to help remove moisture, smoke, and lingering odors.
• Avoid abrasive pads or harsh chemicals on the gray finish to preserve the factory coating and modern appearance.
