The hood-fan should provide many years of
trouble free service provided it is maintained
properly.
Cleaning the Filter.
Clean the grease filter either by carefully
hand washing, (so as not to damage the filter
design) or, preferably in a dishwasher. De-
pending on use, the filters should be cleaned
at least every two weeks in a dishwasher.
If a carbon filter has been fitted this must be
replaced at least every 6 months as a mini-
mum. Depending on cooking style and na-
ture of cooking (greasy foods, fry's, curries
etc) would probably require more frequent
replacement - if odors start to manifest them-
selves when cooking it is time to replace the
carbon filter . We suggest you retain a spare
set. These can be ordered from the supplier
of your range hood.
Cleaning the Hood.
Cleaning of the internal parts should be done
with a clean damp (not excessively wet) cloth
together with regular household detergent.
The external stainless steel elements should
be cleaned with a good quality foaming stain-
less steel cleaner. Read the manufacturers
directions. Generally they recommend that
the foam be sprayed onto a clean dry cloth
and then applied to the stainless steel. Allow
the foam to react on the surface for a few mi-
nutes and then wipe with a clean dry cloth.
On the surfaces that are exposed directly
to heat from the cook-top, it is advisable to
clean these on a regular basis to avoid the
marks from becoming baked on.
Do not under any circumstances use an
abrasive type cleaner as this will scratch and
damage the stainless steel finish. Glass com-
ponents should be cleaned with a product
such as Windex.
