Cleaning And Maintenance - ElectrIQ eiQTMS60BL User Manual

MAINTENANCE
Before cleaning, switch the unit off and pull out the plug, or switch off at the relevant mains
switch if the unit has been hard-wired. Make sure the unit has no power being fed to it.
REGULAR CLEANING
Use a soft cloth moistened with hand-warm mildly soapy water or household cleaning
detergent. Never use metal pads, chemicals, abrasive material or a stiff brush to clean the
unit.
NOTE: Do not use a steam-cleaner to clean the hood; electrical components could be
damaged or short-circuit as a result.
MONTHLY CLEANING FOR METALLIC ANTI-GREASE FILTER
ESSENTIAL NOTE: Clean the filter every month; an excessive build-up of grease can
become a fire hazard. The filter collects grease, smoke and dust, so the filter directly affects
the efficiency of the cooker hood. If it's not cleaned, the grease residue (potentially
flammable) will saturate on the filter.
Remove the filter as shown in the Installation section. Clean it with a soft nylon brush in a mild
solution of warm water and a small amount of washing up liquid. Washing up liquid alone
should not be used. After cleaning, allow the filter to drain and then dry thoroughly.
The grease filter may also be cleaned in a dishwasher using a 60°C program, with the filter
upright (short sides upright) in the lower basket. Please be aware some dishwasher cleaning
agents can permanently discolor the filter, though this will not affect its performance.
Replacement grease filters are available from the same stockist from which you purchased
the hood under the following reference:

REPLACEMENT FOR ACTIVATED CARBON FILTER
These are only required in units that have been installed in recirculation mode. This filter traps
odours and must be replaced ideally every 3-6 months depending on how frequently the
cooker hood has been used. They are not washable or reusable. Replacements are available
from the retailer the hood was purchased from under reference: eIQTMCARBONCHIM
