cleaning & maintenance
5
Before performing any maintenance operation, disconnect the cooker hood from the mains power supply. Ensure that it is
switched off and pull the plug or remove the connector fuse.
Clean the in- and outside of the cooker hood regularly. Clean the cooker hood with warm soapy water and a soft cloth. If your model
is stainless steel, clean it with a stainless steel care product. Do not use any abrasive cleaning agents such as powder cleaners or
cleaners that contain alcohol. Clean the controls only with a damp cloth.
Attention:
failure to carry out the basic cleaning recommendations can cause fire risks.
GREASE FILTERS
A metal grease filter filters the fat particles in the air. Therefore the filter can get clogged, depending on the use. The metal grease filter
does not have to be replaced, but should at least be cleaned once a month. You can clean it either by hand or in the dishwasher on a
low temperature. Make sure the grease filters are competely dry before placing them back.
Do not use any abrasive cleaning agents.
Not cleaning the grease filters on time can cause fire risks.
Cleaning the grease filters in the dishwasher can cause discoloration. This has no effect on the operation.
REMOVING THE GREASE FILTER
Switch off the electricity! Remove the plug from the socket.
Pull the grease filter towards you and tilt it downwards at the
front. Make sure you guide the grease filter with you other hand
to prevent the grease filter from falling down on your cooking
appliance.
REPLACING THE CARBON FILTERS
A carbon filter cleans the air and filters the smell that occurs during cooking. A carbon filter can not
be washed and reused. In all cases it is necessary to replace the carbon filter at least every three
months.
• Remove the grease filters.
• Attach, depending on the model, one or two carbon filters to the motor.
• Replace the grease filters.
CHANGING THE HALOGEN LAMPS
When a light bulb of the cooker hood is broken, you can replace it yourself. Follow these steps:
• Unplug the appliance.
• Remove the grease filters and push the complete spotlight from the inside down out of the hood.
• Carefully remove the glass with a screwdriver.
• Pull out the broken halogen lamp and replace it with a halogen lamp matching the wattage stated at the inside of the cooker hood
(maximum 20 Watt, G4).
• Refit the glass and push the complete spotlight back in the hood.
• Replace the grease filters and plug in the appliance and plug the appliance in.
