THE EXHAUST FEATURE
The exhaust hood feature on your microwave oven is equipped with 2
metal filters which collect grease. When the fail is operated, air is drawn
up through the filters. Depending on your model, it is either discharged
through the provided venting to the outside or drawn through a charcoal
filter and recirculated.

REUSABLE GREASE FILTERS
(on all models)
Reusable Grease Filters (on all models)
The grease filters should be cleaned at least once a month. Never
operate the microwave without the filters in place. In situations where
flaming might occur on surfaces below hood, filters will stop the entry
of flames into the unit.
To Remove Grease Filter
To remove grease filter,
grasp the "finger hold"
on the filter and slide to
the rear. Then pull filter
downward and to the
front. The filter will
drop out.
To Clean and Replace Grease Filter
To clean grease filter, soak it and then agitate filter
in solution of hot water and detergent. Don't use
ammonia or ammonia products because they will
darken the metal. Light brushing call be used to
remove embedded dirt.
Rinse, shake and remove moisture before replacing.
To replace grease filter, slide the filter in the frame
slot on the back of the opening.
Pull filter upward and to the front to lock into place.
Charcoal Filter (on some models)
Some models are not vented to the outdoors; they
recirculate the air instead. These models are equipped
with a disposable charcoal filter that helps remove
smoke and odors caused by cooking on your range.
The disposable charcoal filter should be replaced
when it is noticeably dirty or discolored (usually
after 6 to 12 months, depending on hood usage).
Order Part No. WB02X9883 from your GE supplier.
DO NOT CLEAN THIS FILTER. DO NOT
OPERATE YOUR HOOD WITHOUT ALL
3 FILTERS IN PLACE.
