• Wipe stainless steel surfaces regularly: Use a soft microfiber or cotton cloth with mild detergent; always wipe with the grain to avoid scratches.

• Avoid harsh abrasives: Do not use steel wool, scouring pads, corrosion‑causing cleaners (e.g., bleach, chloride) that can damage finish.

• Dry thoroughly after cleaning: Prevent water spots and preserve long‑term finish quality.

• Use liquid degreaser for heavy buildup: Apply lightly on greasy spots before wiping.

• Run hood during and after cooking: Helps clear smoke, odors, and grease particles from kitchen air.
