Cleaning Hood Canopy
Finishes in enamel or stainless steel are highly resistant
to damage or discoloration due to grease, steam, and
heat—provided that reasonable care is given to the
equipment. The following suggestions will help keep
your hood looking new.
1. DO NOT allow an excessive accumulation of grease.
For best results, you should wipe your hood clean
with a cloth dipped in warm, soapy water. DO NOT
USE ABRASIVE CLEANSERS, STEEL WOOL PADS,
OR ABRASIVE CLOTHS. DO NOT use cleansers that
contain chlorides; the chlorides in the cleaner could
damage the stainless steel fi nish. If you need to scrape
stainless steel to remove encrusted materials, fi rst soak
the area with hot towels to loosen the material, then
use a wooden or nylon spatula or scraper. DO NOT use
a metal knife, spatula, or any other metal tool to scrape
stainless steel.
2. Every 3 months give your hood a thorough cleaning.
On painted surfaces, use a new coat of wax. A good
wax cleaner—available at either a grocery or hardware
store—will do both jobs at once. On stainless steel
surfaces, use a good stainless steel cleaner and polish.
Renewing Enamel Finish
If discoloration occurs, you should thoroughly polish the
fi nish on your hood to renew its gloss and luster and to
remove any grease residue which may have a yellowing
eff ect. Use any good enamel polish, refrigerator polish, or
automotive polish.
Renewing Stainless Steel Finish
Regular cleaning is the best way to assure that your
stainless steel finish stays bright and unscratched. Use
stainless steel polish to coat and protect stainless steel.
Cleaning Brass Parts
All brass parts should be wiped regularly with hot soapy
water. When hot soapy water will not do the job, use
every day household cleaners that are not abrasive.
Replacing the Light Bulbs
When removing bulbs use an oven mitt to protect your
hand in case the bulb breaks.
Halogen Lights
1. Unscrew halogen bulb.
2. Replace the bulb with a 120 volt, 50-watt halogen bulb.
Infrared Heat Lamp
1. Unscrew infrared bulb from heat lamp socket.
2. Replace the bulb with an R40, 120 volt, 250-watt
infrared bulb.
