Maintenance Tips
-
Wipe Surfaces Often: Clean interior and exterior stainless steel with a soft cloth and mild, non‑abrasive cleaner to remove grease and maintain finish — avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive pads.
-
Clean Grease Capture Areas: Although this model features a filter‑less Magic Lung blower system (easier to clean and doesn’t use traditional filters), periodically wipe the blower housing and grease collection areas to prevent buildup and maintain airflow efficiency.
-
Inspect Blower & Fan: Check blower components for dust or grease debris and clear obstructions; this helps sustain effective ventilation and quieter operation.
-
Ductwork & Vent Check: Ensure duct runs are unobstructed, smooth‑walled, and properly sealed for optimal exhaust performance.
-
Lights & Hardware: Replace any burnt‑out bulbs and tighten mounting hardware to prevent vibration or noise during use.
-
Dry After Cleaning: Dry all surfaces after cleaning to avoid water spots and help preserve the finish.
