RECOMMENDATIONS AND SUGGESTIONS
WARNING
1. Before servicing or cleaning unit, unplug or disconnect the rangehood from the power supply.
2. TO REDUCE THE RISK OF A RANGE TOP GREASE FIRE:
A. Never leave surface units unattended at high settings. Boilovers cause smoking and greasy
spillovers that may ignite. Heat oils slowly on low or medium settings.
B. Always turn rangehood ON when cooking at high heat or when flambeing food (i.e. Crepes
Suzette, Cherries Jubilee, Peppercorn Beef Flambe’).
C. Clean ventilation fans frequently. Grease should not be allowed to accumulate on fan or
filter.
D. Use a pan of the proper size. Always use cookware of an appropriate size for the element.
3. TO REDUCE THE RISK OF INJURY TO PERSONS IN THE EVENT OF A RANGE TOP
GREASE FIRE, TAKE THE FOLLOWING PRECAUTIONS:
A. SMOTHER FLAMES with a tight-fitting lid, cookie sheet, or metal tray, then turn off the
burner. BE CAREFUL TO PREVENT BURNS. If the flames do not go out immediately,
EVACUATE AND CALL THE FIRE DEPARTMENT.
B. NEVER PICK UP A FLAMING PAN – You may get burned.
C. DO NOT USE WATER, including wet dishcloths or towels – a violent steam explosion will
result.
D. Use an extinguisher ONLY if:
1) You know you have a Class ABC extinguisher, and you already know how to operate it.
2) The fire is small and contained in the area where it started.
3) The fire department is being called.
4) You can fight the fire with your back to an exit.

MAINTENANCE & CLEANING
Surface Maintenance:
Clean periodically with hot soapy water and clean cotton cloth. Do not use corrosive or abrasive detergent (e.g. comet powder scrub, EZ-Off oven cleaner), or steel wool/scoring pads which will scratch and damage surface.
For heavier soil, use liquid degreaser such as ‘Formula 409’ or ‘Fantastic’ brand cleaner.
After cleaning, you may use non-abrasive stainless steel polish/cleaners such as 3M or ZEP, to polish and buff out the stainless luster and grain. Always scrub lightly, with clean cotton cloth, and with the grain.
Stainless Steel Baffle Filters:
The factory filters are intended to filter out residue and grease from cooking. They do not need to be replaced on a regular basis but they must be kept clean.
Filters should be cleaned after every 30 hours of use.
Remove and clean by hand in a basin of hot soapy water. The filter is also dishwasher safe.
If heavily soiled, spray ‘Formula 409’ or equivalent degreasing detergent and leave to soak.
Dry filters and re-install before using hood.
Oil cup
The oil cup should be cleaned often according to the amount of oil in the cup.
Clean oil cup by hand in a basin of hot soapy water.
If heavily soiled, spray ‘Formula 409’ or equivalent degreasing detergent and leave to soak.
Slide oil cup out/in from the slot at the bottom of the block
Hood Cleaning
The saturation of greasy residue in the blower and filters may cause increased inflammability. Keep unit clean and free of grease and residue build-up at all times to prevent possible fires.
Filters must be cleaned periodically and free from accumulation of cooking residue (see cleaning instructions inside). Old and worn filters must be replaced immediately. Do not operate blowers when filters are removed. Never disassemble parts for cleaning without following proper instructions. It is recommended that disassembly be performed by qualified personnel only. Call our service centre for removal instructions.
Stainless steel is one of the easiest materials to keep clean. Occasional care will help preserve its fine appearance.
Cleaning tips:
* Hot water with soap or detergent is all that is usually needed.
* Rinse with clean water. Wipe dry with a clean, soft cloth to avoid water marks.
* For persistent discoloration or deposits, use a non-abrasive household cleanser or stainless steel
polishing powder with a small amount of water and a soft cloth.
* For stubborn stains use a plastic scouring pad or soft bristle brush together with cleanser and water.
Rub lightly in the direction of polishing lines or the “grain” of the stainless finish. Avoid using too much pressure as this may damage the surface.
* Do not allow deposits to sit for long periods of time.
* Do not use ordinary steel wool or steel brushes. Small bits of steel may adhere to the surface causing
rust.
* Do not allow salt solutions, disinfectants, bleaches, or cleaning compounds to remain in contact with
stainless steel for extended periods. Many of these compounds contain chemicals that may be harmful. Rinse with water after exposure and wipe dry with a clean cloth.
* Painted surfaces should be cleaned with warm water and mild detergent only.
