Long Life Charcoal Filter (Green)
The anti-odour filter can be washed and
regenerated every 3-4 months (or more
frequently if the hood is subject to intensive
use), up to a Max. of 8 regeneration cycles (in
case of particularly intensive use it is recom-
mended that you do not exceed 5 cycles).
Regeneration procedure:
• Wash in the dishwasher at a MAX
temperature of 70° or hand wash in hot
water without using abrasive sponges
(do not use detergents!).
• Dry in the oven at a MAX temperature
of 70° for 2 hours (it is recommended to
read carefully the user manual and the
assembly instruction of the oven of your
own).
• Switch ON the hood at minimum speed when you start cooking and keep it running for
few minutes after cooking is finished.
• Increase the speed only in case of large amount of smoke and vapour and use boost
speed(s) only in extreme situations.
• Replace the charcoal filter(s) when necessary to maintain a good odour reduction ef-
ficiency.
• Clean the grease filter(s) when necessary to maintain a good grease filter efficiency.
• Use the maximum diameter of the ducting system indicated in this manual to optimize
efficiency and minimize noise.
