Before Using Your Hood
Although the hood is cleaned upon completion of the manufacturing process, you will probably need to clean your hood
again after installation. Wipe the surface of the hood with a good household cleaner applied with a soft cloth, or stainless
steel polish, depending on the fi nish of your hood. This will leave a protective fi nish on the hood.
