CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
Maintenance
Regular maintenance and cleaning of the appliance will ensure trouble-free opera-
tion of the cooker hood and extend its life. Especially make sure that the grease filter
and activated charcoal filter are replaced according to manufacturer’s recommen-
dations.
•
Do not use a soaked cloth, sponge, or water jet.
• Do not use solvents or alcohol, as they may tarnish lacquered surfaces.
• Do not use caustic substances, especially for cleaning stainless steel.
• Do not use a rough or abrasive cloth.
• It is recommend to use a damp cloth and a neutral detergent.
Note: After several washes in the dishwasher, the colour of the aluminium filter may
change. The change of colour does not indicate improprieties or the necessity to
change it.
Grease filter
For normal hood operation, grease filter should be cleaned every month in the dish-
washer or by hand using a mild detergent or liquid soap.
Dismantling of grease filter is shown on Figure 5.
Acrylic filter is used in some models. This filter should be replaced at least once
every 2 months or more frequently if the appliance is used intensively.
Activated charcoal filter
Charcoal filter is used only when the cooker hood is not connected to the ventilation
duct. Activated charcoal filter can absorb odours until saturated. Charcoal filter is not
suitable for washing or regeneration and should be replaced at least once every 3-4
months or more frequently if the appliance is used intensively.
Dismantling of charcoal filter is shown on Figure 6.
Light
Use incandescent / halogen / LED modules of the same specification as those fac-
tory-installed in the appliance. See Figure 7 for details how to replace lights. If there
is no such figure in this manual, please contact authorised service to replace the
lighting module.
