Filters

CARE AND CLEANING: Filters

Metal Grease Filter

The metal filter traps grease released by foods from the

cooktop. The filter also helps prevent flames (from food,

grease) from damaging the inside of the hood.

For this reason, the filter must ALWAYS be in place when

the hood is in use. The grease filter is dishwasher-safe

and should be cleaned every 6 months, or as needed.

To remove:

Pull downward on the filter lock to release the filter.

To replace:

Fit the tabs at the end of the filter into the slots in left

side of the filter opening. Lift up the right side of the filter

and push gently until the filter locks into place. Make

sure the filter lock is in the closed position to secure the

filter.

To clean, swish the filter in hot soapy water and rinse

in clean water or wash it in the dishwasher. Do not use

abrasive cleansers.

NOTE: Some discoloration will occur in the dishwasher.

Charcoal Filter

For recirculating installation only

If the model is not vented to the outside, the air will be

recirculated through a disposable charcoal filter that

helps remove smoke and odors.

The charcoal filter should be replaced when it is

noticeably dirty or discolored (usually after 6 to 12

months, depending on hood usage).

NOTE: DO NOT rinse, or put charcoal filter in an

automatic dishwasher.

The charcoal filter cannot be cleaned. It must be

replaced.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

Installation Preparation

PREPARE TO INSTALL THE HOOD

ADVANCE PLANNING

Duct Install Planning

Ŷ This hood is designed to be vented vertically

through the ceiling. A duct transition piece is

supplied for vertical exhaust. Use locally supplied

elbows to vent horizontally through the rear wall.

Ŷ Use metal ductwork only.

Ŷ Determine the exact location of the vent hood.

Ŷ Plan the route for venting exhaust to the

outdoors. To maximize the ventilation

performance of the vent system:

1. Minimize the duct run length and number of

transitions and elbows.

2. Maintain a constant duct size.

3. Seal all joints with duct tape to prevent any

leaks.

4. Do not use any type of flexible ducting.

Ŷ Use the shortest and straightest duct route

possible.

Ŷ Install a wall cap or roof cap with damper at the

exterior opening. Order the wall or roof cap and

any transitions and length of duct needed in

advance.

Ŷ When applicable, install any makeup

(replacement) air system in accordance with local

building code requirements. Visit

GEAppliances.com for available makeup air

solutions.

Wall Framing for Adequate Support

Ŷ This vent hood is heavy. Adequate structural

support must be provided. The hood must be

secured to vertical studs in the wall. See page

14.

Ŷ We strongly recommend that the vent hood with

duct cover be on site before final framing and

wall finishing. This will also help to accurately

locate the ductwork and electrical service.
