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 in. 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 dishwasher cleaned; using a 60°C programme, with the filter
upright (short sides upright) in the lower basket. Please be aware some dishwasher
cleaning agents can permanently discolour the filter, though this will not affect its
performance.
Replacement grease filters are available from the same stockist from which you purchased
the hood:

REPLACEMENT OF THE ACTIVATED CARBON FILTER
These are only required in units that have been installed in recirculation mode (not vented
to the outside). 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.
