Reusable Metal Grease Filters
The hood has 2 metal reusable grease
filters.
The metal filters trap grease released
by foods on the cooktop. They also help
prevent flaming foods on the cooktop
from damaging the inside of the hood.
For this reason, the filters must ALWAYS
be in place when the hood is used. The
grease filters should be cleaned once a
month, or as needed.
To remove, press the filter locks back and
pull the filters down and out.
To replace, insert the rear filter tabs
in the frame slots at the back of the
opening. Push the filters up and lock
them into place.
To clean the grease filters, soak them
and then swish them around in hot
water and detergent. Don’t use ammonia
or ammonia products because they will
darken the metal. Do not use abrasives
or oven cleaners. Light brushing can
be used to remove embedded dirt.
Rinse, shake and let them dry before
replacing. They may also be cleaned in
an automatic dishwasher.
NOTE: Before cleaning, make sure the
charcoal filters, if present, are unclipped
and removed. See the Charcoal Filters
section.
If it ever becomes necessary to replace
the metal grease filters, they may be
ordered from your GE supplier.
