Cleaning Hood Canopy
Finishes in enamel or stainless steel are highly resistant to damage or discoloration due to grease, steam, and heat—provided that reasonable care is given to the equipment. The following suggestions will help keep your hood looking new.
1.DO NOT allow an excessive accumulation of grease. For best results, you should wipe your hood clean with a cloth dipped in warm, soapy water.
DO NOT USE ABRASIVE CLEANSERS,
STEEL WOOL PADS, OR ABRASIVE CLOTHS. DO NOT use cleansers that contain chlorides; the chlorides in the cleaner could damage the stainless steel finish. If you need to scrape stainless steel to remove encrusted materials, first soak the area with hot towels to loosen the material, then use a wooden or nylon spatula or scraper. DO NOT use a metal knife, spatula, or any other metal tool to scrape stainless steel.
2.Every 3 months give your hood a thorough cleaning. On painted surfaces, use a new coat of wax. A good wax cleaner—available at either a grocery or hardware store—will do both jobs at once. On stainless steel surfaces, use a good stainless steel cleaner and polish.
Renewing Enamel Finish
If discoloration occurs, you should thoroughly polish the finish on your hood to renew its gloss and luster and to remove any grease residue which may have a yellowing effect. Use any good enamel polish, refrigerator polish, or automotive polish.
C A U T I O N
DO NOT use a porcelain cleaner or rough abrasive cleaner.
Renewing Stainless Steel Finish
Regular cleaning is the best way to assure that your stainless steel finish stays bright and unscratched. Use lemon oil or stainless steel polish to coat and protect stainless steel.
C A U T I O N
All brass special ordered parts are coated with an epoxy coating. DO NOT use brass cleaners or abrasive cleansers on the brass option parts.
