Care and cleaning of the vent hood.
Be sure electrical power is off and all surfaces are cool before cleaning or servicing any part of the vent hood.
The efficiency of your hood depends 
on a clean filter. Frequency of cleaning 
depends on hood use and the type of 
cooking you do. However, the grease 
filter should be cleaned at least once 
a month.
To remove:
 
Pull down on the center of the front 
edge of the filter. The filter will then 
slip out of the retaining tabs on the 
back. 
To replace: 
Slip the back edge of the filter into the 
retaining tabs and push the front edge 
up until it snaps into place. 
To clean: 
Soak and then agitate it in a hot water 
and detergent solution. Light brushing 
can be used to remove embedded 
dirt. Rinse, shake and let it dry before 
replacing.
NEVER OPERATE THE HOOD 
WITHOUT THE FILTER IN PLACE.
With careful handling, the metal 
filter will last for years. If a new 
replacement filter becomes necessary, 
order the part from your dealer. Order 
genuine GE part number WB02X8391.
