Cleaning the casing W arning: Never use abrasive clean - ers, scouring pads, steel wool or caustic (oven) cleaners on the hood.
Grease filters The reusable metal gr ease filters re - move solid particles from the vented kitchen air (grease, dust, etc). The grease filters should be cleaned every 3 - 4 weeks or whenever the grease filter indicator lights. A dirty filter is a fire hazard.
