Operating your appliance

We recommend that the cooker hood is
•
switched on before any food is cooked. We also
recommend that the appliance is left running
for 15 minutes after the food is cooked, in order
to thoroughly eliminate all contaminated air.
The effective performance of the cooker hood
depends on constant maintenance; the an-
ti-grease filter and the active carbon filter both
require special attention.
The anti-grease filter is responsible retain-
•
ing the grease particles suspended in the air,
therefore it is subject to clogging with variable
frequency according to the use of the appliance.
To prevent the danger of possible fires, at least
•
every 2 months one must wash the anti-grease
filters by hand using non-abrasive neutral liquid
detergents or in the dishwasher at low temper-
atures and on short cycles.
In the event that acrylic anti-grease filters are
•
used, hand-wash every 2 months, using neut-
ral non-abrasive liquid detergents and replace
them after every 6 washes.
After a few washes, color alterations may occur.
•
This is normal and will not effect their perfor-
mance.
The active carbon filters are used to purify
•
the air that is sent back into the room and its
function is to remove the unpleasant odours
produced by cooking.
The non-regenerable active carbon filters must
•
be replaced at least every 4 months. The satu-
ration of the active charcoal depends on the use
of the appliance, on the type of kitchen and on
the frequency with which the antigrease filter
is cleaned.
Before remounting the anti-grease filters
•
and the regenerable active charcoal filters
it is important that they are completely dry.

Clean the hood frequently, both internally
•
and externally, using a cloth dampened
with water or non-abrasive neutral liquid
detergents.
The lighting .system is designed for use during
•
cooking and not for the prolonged general light-
ing of the room. The prolonged use of the light-
ing system significantly decreases the average
duration of the bulbs.
The non-compliance with the
hood cleaning warnings and with
A
the replacement and cleaning of
the filters entails risk of fires. One
therefore recommends keeping to
the suggested instructions.
