CARE AND CLEANING

BAFFLE GREASE FILTERS AND DRIP TRAYSThe metal baffles channel grease released by foods on the cooktop into the drip trays. The baffles also help prevent flaming foods on the cooktop from damaging the inside ofthe hood.For this reason, the baffles must ALWAYS be in place when the hood is used. The grease baffles and drip trays should be cleaned once a month, or as needed. To clean the grease baffles and drip trays, drain and wipe all excess grease with a dry paper towel. 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. To clean hard-to-reach areas of the filter, use a soft brush. Rinse, shake and let them dry before replacing them. They may also be cleaned in an automatic dishwasher.NOTE: Some discoloration of the filters and grease drip trays may occur in the dishwasher. To remove: Grasp the baffle knobs then pull the baffle down and towards you.To replace the drip trays: 

  1. Place and seat the drip tray into the hood track.
  2. Slide them left or right until all trays are side-by-side in place in the track.

To replace the baffles: 

  1. Hold the baffle by the knob and place the other end of the baffle up in the front lip of the hood.
  2. Push the backside up in the rear of the hood until it locks into place.

STAINLESS STEEL SURFACESDo not use a steel wool pad; it will scratch the surface. To clean the stainless steel surface, use warm sudsy water or a stainless steel cleaner or polish. Always wipe the surface in the direction of the grain. Follow the cleaner instructions for cleaning the stainless steel surface. Cleaners with oxalic acid such as Bar Keepers Friend Soft Cleanser™ will remove surface rust, tarnish, and small blemishes. Use only a liquid cleanser free of grit and rub in the direction of the brush lines with a damp, soft sponge.

To inquire about purchasing stainless steel appliance cleaner or polish, or to find the location of a dealer nearest you, please visit monogram.com
