Care and Cleaning
Professional Island Range Hood
Island hood models have reusable metal grease
baffles and drip trays.
Baffle grease
filters and
drip trays
The metal baffles channel grease released by
foods on the cooktop into the drip trays. The
baffles also help prevent flaming foods on the
cooktop from damaging the inside of the hood.
For this reason, the baffles must ALWAYS be in
place when the hood is used. The grease baffles
and drip trays should be cleaned once a month,
or as needed.
Drip Tray
Drip Tray
Track
To clean the grease baffles and drip trays,
drain and wipe all excess grease with a dry
paper towel. Soak them and then swish them
around in hot water and detergent. Don’t use
ammonia or ammonia products because they
will darken the metal. Do not use abrasives or
oven cleaners. Rinse, shake and let them dry
before replacing. They may also be cleaned
in an automatic dishwasher.
To remove:
Drip Tray Replacement
Grasp both baffle knobs on each filter and
pull them up, forward and out. Grasp the
drip tray and carefully lift it up and out of
the hood track.
To replace the drip trays:
1. Place and seat the drip tray into the
hood track.
2. Slide them left or right until all trays are
side-by-side in place in the track.
To replace the baffles:
1. Hold the baffle at the bottom by one of
the knobs.

2. Place the other end of the baffle against
the inside front of the hood.
3. Slide it up and push the bottom end back
until it firmly seats into place.

• A fuse may be blown or a circuit breaker tripped. Replace the fuse
or reset the circuit breaker.
THE BLOWER DOES
NOT WORK BUT
THE LIGHTS DO
• The blower motor wire harness was not connected or was not
connected properly by the installer/electrician/builder to its mating
connector located inside the hood on the top surface, to the left of
the blower assembly.
1. Switch power off at service panel and lock the service
disconnecting means to prevent power from being switched on
accidentally. When the service disconnecting means cannot be
locked, securely fasten a prominent warning device, such as
a tag, to the service panel.
2. Remove the filters and locate the blower wire harness connector.
Is it plugged into its mating connector?
3. If no, plug the blower motor connector into its mating connector
on the top of the hood. Switch the power back on. Check to see
if the fan now works.
4. If no, check the circuit breaker/fuse. If it is blown/tripped,
replace/reset it. Does the blower work now? If no, call GE
for service.
THE BLOWER FAILS
TO EXHAUST THE
SMOKE/STEAM/
• Many factors could be the root cause for reduced air-flow.
1. Installation could be the problem: Your hood was designed to
meet specific ducting requirements. Refer to the Installation
Instructions or if you do not have them, go to ge.com.
If your duct length exceeds the manufacturer’s requirements,
hood performance will suffer. Air-flow will also be reduced if the
house duct work is too small or there are too many elbows in the
system. Contact your installer or builder.
ODORS ADEQUATELY
2. Obstruction in duct work could be the problem: Make sure
nothing is blocking the vent (bird nests or kinks in the duct work).
3. Damper blade may not be opening. Make sure the tape is removed
from the damper blades and that it swings open freely.
4. Damper blade on Wall or Roof Cap may not be opening. Contact
your builder so they can make sure the damper swings open freely.
5. Dirty filters/baffles—make sure filters (and all hood surfaces) are
kept clean of grease and dirt.
