MAINTENANCE & CARE
Caution:
Before cleaning or servicing the unit disconnect it from the mains by pulling the power plug or
disconnecting the main circuit breaker.
First Cleaning
• Remove the protective film.
• Clean with a damp sponge and a little neutral soap.
• Rinse off with a damp cloth.
• Dry with a soft cloth; if the hood is stainless steel, dry along the metal's grain.
Periodic Cleaning
The hood must be cleaned frequently (at least as often as you service the grease filter), inside and
out. Use a damp cloth and a neutral liquid detergent with lukewarm water.
Do not use abrasive or corrosive products.
Warning: Failure to observe the hood cleaning and filter cleaning/replacement instructions can result
in fires. Follow the instructions carefully. The manufacturer is not liable for any damage to the motor
or fires caused by incorrect care or failure to follow the above instructions.
Servicing the Grease Filter (A)
The grease filter retains the particles of grease produced during cooking;
it must be cleaned at least once a month with a non-aggressive
detergent, either by hand or with a low temperature, short dishwasher
cycle.
To extract the grease filter, pull the spring loaded handle.
If washed in a dishwasher, the metal filter may change colour, but this
does not affect performance.
Servicing the Charcoal Filter (B) (if fitted)
The charcoal filter retains unpleasant cooking odours.
The filter saturates after a variable time, depending on the type of cooking and how often the grease
filter is cleaned. The cartridge must be replaced at least once every twenty months.
This filter CANNOT be washed or regenerated.
Disassembly: Remove the activated carbon filter by pressing the two front levers which secure it to
the hood.
Assembly: Secure the activated carbon filter first in the back using the hoods metal tabs and then in
the front by pressing the two levers.
