Use and Care Manual

-Cleaning and Maintenance-

Be sure lights are cool before cleaning your insert. Your insert will not function properly if not

cleaned regularly and maintained properly. Clean the filters regularly (at least twice a month or

every 24 hours of use) by soaking them in soapy water and rinsing them in the dishwasher at

the normal cycle. When the filters are removed the accessible interior can be cleaned of

grease, again using only soap and water. Burned out halogen light bulbs are exchanged in the

same way as normal light bulbs. Make sure to replace them with the same type and wattage

(replacement bulbs are Par 16, 60 watt, halogen 115 volt) Make it a habit to turn on the insert

on low speed even when you are boiling water. Do not use abrasive or aggressive

chemicals! Check the outside end of the duct at least once a year. Make sure that the

back draft damper (sold separately) hinges are free of grease and move easily. If you

have an insect screen installed in the duct termination, make sure that it is not broken

or dislocated. Filters are dishwasher safe or you may hand wash them with warm soapy

water.

1) Turn the fan and lights off.

2) !Push the filters towards the top and extract downward.

3) When placing filters into the dishwasher be sure that the filters are angled.

4) Drain water and let each filter dry before replacing.
