- General Electric Microwave Oven Owner's Manual

The Exhaust Feature ~

The exhaust hood feature on your GE microwave

oven is equipped with a metal filter which collects

grease. When the fan is operated, air is drawn up

through the filter and is then discharged through

provided venting to the outside. The hood also has a

light for illuminating the counter surface.

To remove grease filter, grasp the “finger hold” on

the filter and push to the rear. The filter will drop out.

To replace grease filter, insert the filter in the top

me slot on the back of the opening. Push to the

~ar and upward to snap into place.

Soak, t~en agitate filter in hot detergent solution.

Don’t use ammonia or other alkali because it will

darken metal. Light brushing can be used to remove

in bedded dirt. Rinse, shake and remove moisture be-

fore replacing. Filters should be cleaned at least

once a month. Never operate your hood without the

filter in place. In situations where flaming might

occur on surfaces below hood, filter can retard entry

of flames into the unit.
