Maintenance Tips
-
Clean Surfaces Often: Wipe both interior and exterior stainless steel with a soft cloth and mild, non‑abrasive cleaner (warm, soapy water) to remove grease and keep the finish clean. Avoid harsh chemicals, strong detergents, and abrasive pads that can damage surfaces. Always rinse and dry after cleaning.
-
Grease Filter & Trap Care: If your model has removable grease traps or baffle filters, remove and clean them regularly in warm, soapy water or a dishwasher (if allowed) to maintain airflow and minimize fire risk. Filters must be free of heavy residue.
-
Fan & Blower Inspection: With power off, check the blower housing and fan area for dust or grease buildup; clear obstructions to maintain strong ventilation and quieter operation.
-
Ductwork Check: Ensure ducts are unobstructed and properly sealed — smooth, short duct runs improve airflow and extraction efficiency.
-
Light & Hardware Checks: Replace any burnt‑out bulbs promptly and tighten mounting hardware to prevent vibration or rattling during use
