Baffle Filter Cleaning
The TRH3606 uses commercial-style 430-grade stainless steel baffle filters designed to maximize air flow and grease filtering. These filters should be cleaned regularly, depending on cooking frequency.
- Turn off the range hood and disconnect power before cleaning.
- Remove the baffle filters by sliding them out of their slots.
- Wash the filters in hot, soapy water or in a dishwasher. For stubborn grease, a degreasing agent may be used.
- Rinse thoroughly and allow to dry completely before re-installing.
Exterior Cleaning
Clean the stainless steel exterior with a soft cloth and a non-abrasive stainless steel cleaner. Always wipe in the direction of the grain to prevent scratching. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive pads.
