Caring for the filters

The grease filters should be removed and
cleaned often, at least once a month.

NOTE: If your microwave hood combination
is installed to recirculate air, the charcoal
filter (available from your designated service
company, Part No. 4359416) should be
installed. The charcoal filter cannot be
cleaned and should be replaced every 6 to
12 months.

Grease filters:

1. Disconnect power or unplug microwave

oven.

2. To remove grease filters, slide each filter

to the side. Pull filters downward and
push to the other side. The filter will drop
out.

3. Soak grease filters in hot water and a mild

detergent. Scrub and swish to remove
embedded dirt and grease. Rinse well
and shake
to dry. Do not clean filters
with ammonia, corrosive cleaning
agents such as lye-based oven
cleaners, or place them in a
dishwasher. The filters will turn black
or could be damaged.
