Proper cleaning is necessary to ensure safe 

operation and maintain hood performance and 

appearance. The frequency of cleaning should 

be adjusted according to the type and amount of 

cooking. Best results will be achieved by cleaning 

soiled components as soon as possible.

Cleaning Stainless Steel Surfaces

Clean stainless steel surfaces with a mild solution 

of detergent or dishwashing soap and warm water. 

Rinse and dry with a soft, lint-free cloth.
You may also use Dacor Stainless Steel Cleaner. 

Use it according to the directions on the package.

Cleaning the Light Lens

Use a mild glass cleaner to remove smudges on 

the light fixture lens. You can also clean it with 

Dacor Cook Top Cleaning Creme. Use it according 

to the directions on the package.

Cleaning the Filter(s)

Clean the filter a minimum of every two 

months. To help remind you to clean the 

filter(s), the control panel will flash after 

30 hours of blower operation. Touch the 

timer reset key to reset.
