Maintenance

Regular maintenance ensures optimal performance and longevity of your range hood.

Cleaning the Aluminum Mesh Filters:

1. Remove Filters: Locate the handles on the aluminum mesh filters. Gently pull the handle and slide the filter out.
2. Clean Filters: The filters are dishwasher safe. Alternatively, wash them by hand with hot water and a mild detergent. Ensure they are completely dry before reinstallation.
3. Reinstall Filters: Slide the clean, dry filters back into their slots until they click into place.

Clean the exterior stainless steel surfaces with a non-abrasive stainless steel cleaner and a soft cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or scouring pads.

Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues with your range hood, refer to the following common troubleshooting steps:

• Fan Not Operating: Check if the power cord is securely plugged in. Ensure the power button has been pressed. Verify circuit breaker is not tripped.
• Poor Suction: Check if filters are clogged and require cleaning. Ensure ductwork is not obstructed or leaking. For non-ducted models, check if charcoal filters need replacement.
• Lights Not Working: Check if the light button has been pressed. Verify LED bulbs are properly seated or require replacement.
• Excessive Noise: Ensure the unit is securely mounted. Check for loose parts or obstructions in the fan blades.
