ATTENTION!
Before performing any maintenance operation, isolate the
hood from the electrical supply by switching off at the con-
nector and removing the connector fuse.
Or if the appliance has been connected through a plug and
socket, then the plug must be removed from the socket.
Cleaning
Do not spray cleaners directly to the control while cleaning
the Hood.The cooker hood should be cleaned regularly (at
least with the same frequency with which you carry out main-
tenance of the fat filters) internally and externally. Clean using
the cloth dampened with neutral liquid detergent. Do not use
abrasive products. DO NOT USE ALCOHOL!

WARNING
Failure to carry out the basic cleaning recommendations of
the cooker hood and replacement of the filters may cause fire
risks. Therefore, we recommend oserving these instructions.
The manufacturer declines all responsibility for any damage to
the motor or any fire damage linked to inappropriate maintenan-
ce or failure to observe the above safety recommendations.
Grease Filter
Traps cooking grease particles. This must be cleaned once a
month using non aggressive detergents, either by hand or in
the dishwasher, which must be set to a low temperature and
a short cycle. When washed in a dishwasher, the grease filter
may discolour slightly, but this does not affect its filtering
capacity. To remove the grease filter, pull the spring release
handle.

Charcoal Filter
If the model is not vented to the outside, the air will be recir-
culated through disposable charcoal filters that help remove
smoke and odors.
The charcoal filters are clipped on the motor housing frame.
NOTE: Charcoal filters are not included with the hood. They
must be ordered from your supplier.
Order the needed kit specifying your hood model and width size.

Cleaning/replacing the charcoal filter
Unlike other charcoal filters, the LONGLIFE charcoal filter can
be cleaned and reactivated.
With normal use the filter should be cleaned every second
month (when using the hood 2.5 hours per day,on average).
The best way to clean the filter is in the dishwasher.
Use normal detergent and choose the highest temperature
(65º C or 149° F).
Wash the filter separately so that no food parts gets stuck on
the filter and later causes bad odours.
To reactivate the charcoal, the filter should be dried in an oven
for 10 minutes with a maximum temperature of
100º C or
212° F.
After approximately one year of use, the charcoal filter should
be replaced with a new one, as the odour reduction capacity
will be reduced.
