Use of the appliance
Never use an open flame beneath
the cooker hood - to avoid the
danger of fire do not flambé or grill
dishes. When switched on the cooker
hood could draw flames into the filter.
Fat particles drawn into the cooker
hood present a fire hazard.
When using the cooker hood over
a gas hob ensure that any burners
in use are always covered by a pan.
Otherwise flames could be drawn up
by the suction of the cooker hood,
parts of which could then be damaged.
Always switch the cooker hood on
when a cooking zone is in use,
otherwise condensation may collect in
the hood, which could cause corrosion.
When cooking with oil or fat, chip
pans and deep fat fryers etc, do
not leave the pans unattended.
Overheated oil and fat can ignite and
could set the cooker hood on fire.
Do not use the cooker hood with-
out the grease filter in place.
This way you will avoid the risk of
grease and dirt getting into the ap-
pliance and hindering its smooth oper-
ation.
The filters should be regularly
cleaned, or changed, as appropri-
ate.
Saturated filters are a fire hazard.
Under no circumstances use a
steam cleaner to clean this ap-
pliance.
Pressurised steam could give rise to a
short circuit, or cause permanent dam-
age to the surface and to components,
for which the manufacturer of the
cooker hood cannot accept any respon-
sibility.
In countries which may be subject
to infestation by cockroaches or
other vermin, pay particular attention to
keeping the appliance and its surround-
ings in a clean condition at all times.
Any damage which might be caused
by cockroaches or other vermin will not
be covered by the appliance guarantee.
