VI.1 Metal grease filter
Particular attention should be paid to the metallic anti-grease filters that are designed to trap particles of fat contained
in the fumes. The metallic anti-grease filters must be washed at least once a month or, if present in this model, when
indicated by the electronic notice, with detergent in hot water (or in the dish-washer). The filters may discolor after a
few washes. This is normal and does not mean they have to be replaced. To remove the metal grease filters, use the
handle on the filter itself (Fig. 6.1.1-B). It is recommended to refit the metal grease filters only if perfectly dry.
VI.2 Activated carbon filter (for filtering hoods)
The activated carbon filters, if present, have the function of retaining the odors present in the cooking fumes.
The air is introduced into the purified environment. The activated carbon filters must not be washed and must be
replaced 3 or 4 times a year in accordance with the use of the hood. Request the filters from the manufacturer.
To install the activated carbon filters, the metal grease filters must first be removed (Fig. 6.1.1-B).
At this point, without the use of tools, install the activated carbon filters by hooking them to the interlocking tabs on
the sides of the motor. Then fix them by rotating them about 90 ° with respect to their insertion position in the tabs
(Fig. 6.1.1-A). To replace the activated carbon filters, reverse the operations.
VI.3 Hood Cleaning
Immediately after installation, remove the protective film in order to eliminate any residual adhesive or other impurities.
The hood must be cleaned frequently both internally and externally (at least once a month). Do not allow dirt to
accumulate on the surfaces of the hood.
Do not use acid or basic products or abrasive sponges to clean the external body of the hood. Clean the hood with a
sponge moistened with hot water and a modest quantity of neutral soap (for example dish soap) in order to eliminate
any grease particles that may have deposited.
Rinse with a damp cloth, carefully removing all the soap, following the direction of the satin finish of the steel surface.
Drying is particularly important, especially in areas where the water is very hard and leaves limescale deposits.
VI.4 Lighting
The hood is equipped with LED lighting which, in addition to offering excellent lighting and limited energy consumption,
guarantee a considerable duration over time. In case of replacement, contact the assistance service.
