METAL FILTERS CLEANING:
CARBON FILTERS REPLACEMENT: (For recirculated version only)
Special attention should be reserved to the metal
grease filters. An excess of grease in the filter, as well
as affecting the performance of the hood, can also be
a fire risk. To avert fires, the filters must be cleaned
regularly at least once a month or more frequently, in
the case of a heavy use of the appliance.
According to your hood’s model, remove one filter at a
time as shown in these pictures. Wash the filters
thoroughly with a non-bleach detergent, either by hand
or machine. Re-assemble the filters, making sure that
the handle faces the outside of the hood.
The carbon filters can only retain odours for a limited
period of time. They cannot be washed, therefore, it is
recommended they are replaced at least once every
six months or more frequently in the case of a heavy
use of the appliance.
Before starting, make sure the hood is disconnected
from the mains supply.
To reach the active carbon filters, it is necessary to
remove the metal filters as shown above. Use the
pictures to find the carbon filter kit of your hood.
Round filter: simply rotate the filters 90 degrees as
shown in fig. A and then remove them from their
seats.
Spring-held cartridge filter (fig. B): press enough to
overcome the spring’s resistance and remove the
filter.
Cartridge filter with bracket and threaded knob (fig.
C): unscrew the knob, remove the blocking racket and
then remove the active carbon filter.
Re-assemble the carbon and metal filters performing
the above mentioned operations backwards.
Note: only for the electronic controlled hood, reset the
filters cleaning warning by pressing the
