Charcoal Filter Maintenance (Recirculating Hoods Only)  
Replace the charcoal filters every 6 months to 1 year depending on the  
amount and type of cooking.  
Cleaning and Maintenance  
CAUTION  
UNPLUG POWER CORDS FROM CONTROL PANEL BEFORE  
CLEANING OR SERVICING HOOD.  
To replace, remove the baffle/charcoal  
filter assembly and slide the charcoal  
filter out of the channel and replace  
with new one. Do not put the  
charcoal filters in the dishwasher or  
oven.  
Any piece of equipment works better and lasts longer when  
maintained properly and kept clean. Ventilation equipment is no exception.  
Your hood must be kept clean and maintained properly.  
Cleaning the Mesh Filters  
Replacement filters are available  
As air passes through the filter, grease particles collect on the stainless steel  
screen inside the filter. The filters should be examined periodically to assure  
that all surfaces and parts are clean. This unit is equipped with a filter clean  
alarm. Once the unit has been in operation for 48 hours, the letters “FILT”  
will appear on the display. The filters can be washed in a dishwasher or in a  
sink with hot, soapy water. Simple periodic cleaning will insure maximum  
filter effectiveness. Do not use caustic detergent to clean the filters. A caustic  
cleaner may damage the finish. Do not take the filters apart to clean them. It  
is not necessary and will void the filter warranty. Once the filters have been  
cleaned and placed back in the hood, the display is canceled by holding the  
scroll up (+) and the scroll down (-) buttons for 5 seconds.  
through your local Viking Range  
dealer or you can call the Viking  
Online Store at 1-877-834-8222.  
Cleaning the 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 you 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 cleaners that contain chlorides, the  
chlorides in the cleaner could damage the stainless steel finish. If  
necessary to scrape stainless steel to remove encrusted materials, 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 three 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.

Canopy”.

3. Clearly describe the problem that you are having.  
Renewing the Enamel Finish  
If discoloration occurs, you should thoroughly polish the finish on your hood  
to renew its gloss and luster and to remove any grease residue which may  
have a yellowing effect. Use any good enamel polish, refrigerator polish, or  
automotive polish. CAUTION: Do not use a porcelain cleaner or rough  
abrasive cleaner.  
Renewing the Stainless Steel Finish  
Regular cleaning is the best way to assure that your stainless steel finish stays  
bright and unscratched. Use lemon oil or stainless steel polish to coat and  
protect stainless steel.

if you continue to have service problems, contact Viking Range
