dish washing soap and hot water. Please wear gloves while
cleaning filters to protect against scrapes or cuts. Exercise cau-
tion around sharp metal edges and corners.

Instructions
 Remove the Filters from the Hood: Using the included
latch (on mesh filters only), remove them from underneath
the range hood.

dissolve hard grease and oil built up on the filters.

ous amount of cleaning solution and make sure it is com-
pletely dissolved in the water.

Interior Range Hood Cleaning
The unit must be turned off before being cleaned. Also avoid
spraying cleaner directly onto the light bulb or light bulb socket.
You can clean the interior of the vent hood with a standard house-
hold degreaser/cleaner and a sponge or rag; it will probably get
quite dirty, so make sure to use something that you don't mind
throwing away afterward.
Exterior Oven Vent Cleaning
The exterior of a vent hood may also be cleaned with a standard
household degreaser/cleaner or a non-abrasive cleanser. Since
exterior range hood cleaning is a lot easier to do, you may want to
incorporate it into your daily or weekly cleaning routine. If your
vent hoods have never been cleaned, you may want to call in a
professional to do the job the first time, as it is very likely that it
will be pretty messy.
