CAUTION:
•
Before maintenance or cleaning is carried out, the cooker hood should
be disconnected from the mains power supply. Remove the plug.
•
Some parts are susceptible to scratches and abrasions, so follow the
cleaning instructions to ensure the best possible result is achieved
without damage.
5.1. General
Cleaning and maintenance should be carried out with the appliance
cold especially when cleaning. Avoid leaving alkaline or acid
substances (lemon juice, vinegar etc.) on the surfaces.
5.2. Stainless steel
The stainless steel must be cleaned regularly to ensure a long-life
expectancy. A specialized stainless steel cleaning fluid may be used
(please refer to the instruction of the manufacturer).
NOTE:
Use a soft cloth and ensure that wiping is done along with the
grain of the stainless steel to prevent any unsightly crisscross
scratching patterns.
5.3. Control panel
The inlay control panel can be cleaned using warm soapy water.
Ensure the cloth is clean and well wrung before cleaning. Use a dry
soft cloth to remove any excess moisture left after cleaning.
IMPORTANT:
Using neutral detergents and avoid using harsh
cleaning chemicals, strong household detergents or products
containing abrasives, as this will affect the appearance of the
appliance appearance and potentially remove any printing of artwork
on the control panel and will void manufactures warrantee.

We suggest to clean the filters by hand. Soak them for about 3
minutes in warm soapy water and then brush it gently with a soft
brush. Please do not apply too much pressure, avoid to damage it.
Rinse and leave to dry naturally (out of direct sunlight).

Before installing the filters, ensure they are completely dry.
