CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
CAUTION!
• Before cleaning the rangehood or carrying out maintenance, make sure the operation and
light switches are set to the " 0 " position and the rangehood is disconnected from the power
supply.
• It is important to clean the filters regularly as oil and food residues can become a fire hazard.
• Never use a steam cleaner to clean any part of the rangehood.
CLEANING THE RANGEHOOD EXTERIOR
Wipe the exterior surface of the rangehood regularly using a soft cloth moistened with a household
solvent such as methylated spirits, or with a sponge dampened with water and a little non-abrasive
liquid detergent.
CLEANING THE GREASE FILTERS
The aluminium mesh filters must be cleaned regularly in order to prevent a fire hazard. Regular
cleaning also ensures better efficiency, as grease and grime can impede the airflow. We
recommend cleaning them at least every two months.
• Push in the plastic opening latch and take the filters out of their frames (Fig. 9).
Fig.9
• Wash the filters thoroughly in warm, soapy water, leaving them to soak for best results. Rinse
with warm water and leave to dry.
NOTE: The aluminum panels may slightly change colour after several washes. This is not a fault
and no cause for concern. It does not affect performance and does not warrant replacement
of these parts.
CHARCOAL FILTERS
If you are using the rangehood with the air recirculating back into the room, the charcoal filters are
recommended.
A charcoal filter absorbs cooking odours and must be changed regularly. How often you need
to change the filters depends on your usage. We recommend changing them every three to six
months. An activated charcoal filter cannot be washed or recycled; it must be replaced with a new
one.
To obtain replacement filters, contact our after sales support line and arrange for purchase.
NOTE: The suction power will be lowered with charcoal filters installed.
