6. Maintenance and Care

To maintain the appearance and longevity of your stainless steel hood cover, follow these care instructions:

• Cleaning: Wipe the surface regularly with a soft cloth dampened with warm water and a mild, non-abrasive detergent.
• Drying: Always dry the surface immediately after cleaning with a clean, soft cloth to prevent water spots and streaks.
• Avoid: Do not use abrasive cleaners, steel wool, or harsh chemicals, as these can scratch or damage the stainless steel finish.

7. Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues with your hood cover, consider the following:

• Improper Fit: Double-check the compatibility with your range hood model (CH1259IXCN). Ensure all mounting points are correctly aligned and secured.
• Scratches/Dents: Minor surface scratches on stainless steel may sometimes be buffed out with specialized stainless steel polish. For significant damage, replacement may be necessary.
