Maintenance Tips

• Clean aluminum grease filters every 2–4 weeks: Dishwasher-safe cast-effect filters help maintain strong 600 CFM airflow and prevent grease buildup.
• Use maintenance alarm: The built-in indicator signals when filters need cleaning—reset only after proper servicing for best performance.
• Wash Long Life carbon filter (if recirculating): Regenerable filter lasts up to ~3 years; wash every 2 months and dry as recommended to restore efficiency.
• Wipe stainless steel + white KRION surfaces weekly: Use a soft microfiber cloth and mild cleaner to protect the seamless architectural finish.
• Keep LED strip light clean: Removes grease film for consistent illumination over the cooktop.
• Maintain duct/air path clearance: Ensures stable suction, lower noise, and efficient 600 CFM performance.
• Avoid abrasive cleaners or pads: Prevents surface damage on specialty materials and preserves long-term aesthetics.
• Run hood 2–5 minutes after cooking: Clears residual steam/smoke and reduces long-term odor absorption.
