Cleaning And Care
General notes
The surfaces and controls are
susceptible to scratches and
abrasions. Please observe the
following cleaning instructions.
•
All external surfaces and controls can
be cleaned using a Luxair E-Cloth, or
with warm water and a litt le
washing-up liquid applied with a well
wrung-out soft sponge or cloth.
•
Wipe the surfaces dry using a soft cloth.
Do not use too much water when
cleaning the controls. Water could
penetrate into the electronics and
cause damage.
Do not use:
– Cleaning agents containing soda,
acids, chlorides or solvents,
–
– Abrasive cleaning agents e.g.
powder cleaners or cream cleaners,
and abrasive sponges, e.g. pot
scourers or sponges which have
been previously used with abrasive
cleaning agents. These will damage
the surface material.
Important for appliances with
stainless steel housing
(This information does not apply to the
controls).
Stainless steel surfaces can be cleaned
using the Luxair E-Cloth, or with a
proprietary non-abrasive cleaning
agent designed specifically for use on
stainless steel.
To help prevent re-soiling, a proprietary
conditioning agent for stainless steel
such as baby oil or olive oil can also be
used. Follow the manufacturer's
instructions, and apply sparingly with
an even pressure in the direction of the
"grain".
Controls
The controls may suffer discoloration
or damage if soiling is left on them for
too long.
Remove soiling straight away.
Before carrying out any cleaning or
maintenance work, disconnect the
cooker hood from the mains supply.
Ensure that:
– it is switched off at the wall socket
and the plug withdrawn, or
– the fuse is withdrawn from the
fused spur connection unit, or
– the mains fuse is withdrawn, or
– the screw-out fuse is removed (in
countries where this is applicable).
Never spray cleaning products
directly at the control or switch
panels.
