Before cleaning or maintenance,
switch off the electricity supply.
Replacing a light bulb
1. Switch off the electricity supply.
2. Remove the grease filters from the
hood.
3. Unscrew the bulb from the holder.
Replacement bulbs can be
obtained from your supplier or
local hardware store.
4. Fit the new bulb, ensuring it is
screwed securely into the holder.
5. Refit the grease filters.
To avoid any fire risk, the following
cleaning instructions must be followed:
Grease filters
The grease filters absorb grease and
dust from cooking fumes, which would
otherwise damage the inside of the hood.
The grease filter should be removed
and cleaned regularly - with normal
use, this should be every 2 months.
I m p o r t a n t :
Frequent washing is
essential to prevent a build up of
grease in the filters which could
become a fire hazard.
1. Remove the filters from the hood.
2. Carefully wash the grease filters in
hot soapy water and dry with a
clean towel.
3. Refit the clean filters.
Outer casing
All external parts of the outer casing
and visor can be safely cleaned with a
clean cloth wrung out in hot soapy
water.
Do not use
caustic pastes, abrasive
cleaning powders, wire wool and
hard implements, as they will damage
the surfaces.
Carbon filters
(models installed for
use with the re-circulation method only)
The carbon filters absorb cooking
odours and need renewing after about
4 months of normal use. A replace-
ment carbon filter can be obtained
from your supplier.
Saturation of the activated charcoal in
the filter will depend on how often the
hood is used, the type of kitchen and
the regularity of cleaning the grease filter.
The carbon filters cannot be
washed - renew every 4 months.
1. Remove the grease filters from the
hood.
2. Release the old carbon filters by
twisting them in either direction by
a quarter turn (90˚) until they
disengage.
3. Fit the new carbon filters by
engaging them onto the pegs in
the centre of the fan grille and
twisting by a quarter turn until they
are gripped securely.
4. Refit the grease filters.
