Maintenance - Whirlpool AKR 804 Installation Manual

Maintenance

ALWAYS disconnect the hood from the mains before
performing maintenance.
Grease filter
It must be cleaned once a month (or when the filter
saturation system - if present on model in question - indicates
cleaning is necessary) with a mild detergent, by hand or in a
dishwasher using a low temperature, short wash cycle.
Cleaning in a dishwasher may cause discolouring of the
grease filter, but its filtering efficiency is unaffected.
Carbon filter
Retains any unpleasant odours produced during cooking.
The carbon filter can be washed every two months (or when
the filter saturation system - if present on model in question -
indicates cleaning is necessary) in hot water and with suitable
detergents or in a dishwasher at 65°C (when cleaning in a
dishwasher, do a complete wash cycle without any dishes).
Remove excess water without damaging the filter, then place
in the oven at 100°C for 10 minutes to dry it completely.
Replace the wadding every 3 years or whenever it is seen to
be damaged.
Removing the filters
The metal grease filter and the carbon filter are installed
coupled at the bottom (extraction area).
To remove or refit them, proceed as follows:

the seats on the lamp holder, and twist 1/4 turn (approx.)
clockwise.
Replacing the side lamps
Remove the lampholder by unscrewing the three screws that
fix it to the hood (Fig. 12).
Warning! While removing its fixing screws, the lampholder
could drop and smash or cause damage, so hold it with one
hand while removing it.
Unscrew the burnt-out lamp and replace with with an olive-
shaped, 40W max (E14).
