It is always necessary to isolate the hood from the
power supply during cleaning and maintenance.
Therefore remove the plug.
We recommend carrying our maintenance regularly
(about every 10 days) to ensure efficacious and
constant performance of the hood.
Cleaning
The cooker hood should be cleaned regularly (at least
with the same frequency with which you carry out
maintenance of the fat filters) internally and externally.
Clean using the cloth dampened with neutral liquid
detergent. Do not use abrasive products. DO NOT USE
ALCOHOL!
WARNING:
Failure to carry out the basic cleaning
recommendations of the cooker hood and replacement
of the filters may cause fire risks.
Therefore, we recommend oserving these instructions.
The manufacturer declines all responsibility for any
damage to the motor or any fire damage linked to
inappropriate maintenance or failure to observe the
above safety recommendations.
Cleaning the grease filters
Traps cooking grease particles.
This must be cleaned once a month using non
aggressive detergents, either by hand or in the
dishwasher, which must be set to a low temperature
and a short cycle. When washed in a dishwasher, the
grease filter may discolour slightly, but this does not
affect its filtering capacity.
Cleaning the carbon filter
It absorbs unpleasant odours caused by cooking.
The charcoal filter can be washed once every two
months using hot water and a suitable detergent, or in
a dishwasher at 65°C (if the dishwasher is used, select
the full cycle function and leave dishes out).
Eliminate excess water without damaging the filter,
then remove the mattress located inside the plastic
frame and put it in the oven for 10 minutes at 100° C to
dry completely. Replace the mattress every 3 years
and when the cloth is damaged.
Mounting and changing the filter
The metal grease filter and the carbon filter are
installed coupled at the bottom (extraction area).
To remove or refit them, proceed as follows:
a+c. turn the three screws 1/4 turn.
b+d+e. remove the filter holder frame and the metal
grease filter (and the carbon filter).
Proceed in reverse order to refit.
