Maintenance Tips

• Exterior Cleaning Weekly – Wipe the stainless steel exterior with warm, soapy water and a soft cloth; avoid steel wool, abrasive cleaners, and harsh chemicals to protect the finish.

• Interior Grease Wipe‑Down – Periodically clean the interior canopy with a mild degreaser or dish soap to remove cooking grease, which can reduce airflow and performance.

• Magic Lung Blower Care – This professional hood is equipped with the Magic Lung blower system, which captures grease inside the blower housing instead of traditional filters; remove and clean the blower housing and shields with warm, soapy water to maintain suction and quiet operation.

• Light Bulb Maintenance – Turn off power and let lights cool before replacing; wipe light covers to maintain good illumination over the cooktop.

• Annual Duct & Fan Check – At least once a year, inspect the blower area and ductwork for grease buildup or blockages; clear debris to preserve performance and reduce fire risk.

• Post‑Cooking Ventilation – Run the hood for a few extra minutes after heavy cooking to clear lingering steam and airborne grease before cleaning.

• Professional Service When Needed – If airflow decreases significantly or unusual noises occur, have a qualified technician inspect and service internal components.
