Cleaning your Baumatic cooker hood
IMPORTANT:
BEFORE
CLEANING,
ALWAYS
ENSURE THAT YOU HAVE SWITCHED YOUR
COOKER HOOD OFF
AT THE OMNI-POLAR
SWITCH, SET AT THE WALL FROM THE CABLE.
Cleaning
o
Clean the external parts of your cooker hood with mild liquid
detergent and a new damp cloth.
o
Never use abrasive powder, corrosive solvents or brushes.
o
Never insert pointed objects into the motor’s protective grid.
o
Only clean the control panel and grease filter grill with mild liquid
detergents and a new damp cloth.
o
If you are using the appliance in recirculation mode, then be
sure to replace the carbon filter at the recommended interval
(see section on “Fitting the carbon filter”). A build up of grease
could cause a fire hazard.
o
Never attempt to clean the area above the grease filter(s).
The grease filters
o
Your cooker hood includes grease filters which help to absorb
grease particles to protect your kitchen and furniture from
greasy residues.
o
These metallic filters may become flammable if they become
saturated with this greasy residue.
o
To prevent this fire hazard, the filters should be cleaned
regularly. Depending on use, this should be done every 10-15
days or at least once a month, using hot water and normal
washing-up detergent.
o
DO NOT WASH THE GREASE FILTERS IN A DISHWASHER.
o
After 14 hours of operation, the cleaning reminder symbol will
light on the LCD display. This can be cleared by pressing the
light button once (the lights will switch on). Then pressing and
holding the light button until the cleaning reminder symbol goes
out.
