Mine has a button under the hood on the rear right side (against the wall) that says, "Push to clean." When I pushed it and another similar one on the left side, the bottom of the hood swung down on hinges at the front. Going around the side and looking behind the section that was hanging down I could see all the innards of the hood, and could access the light bulb.
Using a stool positioned directly beneath the inoperative fan, grasp 2 opposite sides of the plastic fan cover and pull cover down 2 to 3 inches until wire holding clasps on each side are exposed.
Squeeze the 2 wires on each clasp together until the fan cover is released and set aside fan cover.
Locate fan electrical plug and unplug the connection from the electrical outlet.
Locate the screw securing the fan unit to the ceiling. This is often found directly adjacent the electrical outlet. Some fan models will have 2 securing screws. These will be located on opposite sides of the fan base.
Use flat-head screwdriver to remove securing screw, pull fan out of the fan well and set old fan aside.
Align replacement fan in position to allow electrical plug to be inserted in electrical socket and plug into electrical outlet.
Insert fan into ceiling well and secure by inserting and tightening securing screw(s).
Test fan by turning on wall switch. If fan fails to operate, check to be certain that the plug is fully inserted into the electrical outlet. If fan still does not operate, check circuit breaker and reset if necessary.
Replace fan cover by holding cover in place with 2 wire clasps just below the slots in the fan base. Squeeze the 2 wire ends of each clasp together and insert these into the the slots on opposite sides of the fan base. Once properly inserted, the ends of the wire claps will spring into place.
Push the fan cover up allowing the wire clasps to be fully inserted into the slots on the fan base, at which point the clasps will spring open securing the cover in place. THANK YOU FOR VISITING FIXYA
The motor assembly is held in place with tabs and possibly one screw. Remove the light assembly and once you get to the fan itself, unplug it, and push the side of the unit outward to release the tabs. You push the fan assembly up while pushing out on the side. If you look closely you can see the slots where the tabs go. There may or may not be a screw holding it in place. After you release one side, then rotate the fan assembly down and out.

the fan is pulling too many cfm (cubic feet per minute).you can replace the switch of the fan with a potentiometer type switch (this works like a light dimmer)you can reduce the speed of the fan,or you can use a couple of synthetic fiber filters to trap the condensation.good luck
