Cleaning your cooker hood
IMPORTANT: BEFORE CLEANING, ALWAYS ENSURE
THAT YOU HAVE SWITCHED YOUR COOKER HOOD
OFF
AT THE OMNI-POLAR SWITCH, SET AT THE
WALL FROM THE CABLE.
Cleaning
o
Clean the external parts of your cooker hood with mild liquid
detergent and a new damp cloth.
o
Never use abrasive powder, corrosive solvents or brushes.
o
Never insert pointed objects into the motor’s protective grid.
o
Only clean the control panel and grease filter grill with mild liquid
detergents and a new damp cloth.
o
If you are using the appliance in recirculation mode, then be sure to
replace the carbon filters at the recommended interval (see section
on “Fitting the carbon filter”). A build up of grease could cause a
fire hazard.
o
Never attempt to clean the area above the grease filter.
o
IMPORTANT: You should regularly use a good quality
stainless steel cleaner to maintain the shine and finish on
the stainless steel areas of your cooker hood.
o
This will help to leave a silicone water-resistant film to protect the
stainless steel surfaces and keep them in good condition for the life
of the product.
The grease filter
o
Your cooker hood includes a grease filter which helps to absorb
grease particles to protect your kitchen and furniture from greasy
residues.
o
The metallic filter may become flammable if it becomes saturated
with greasy residue.
o
To prevent this fire hazard, the filter should be cleaned regularly.
Depending on use, this should be done every 10-15 days or at least
once a month, using hot water and normal washing-up detergent.

o
DO NOT WASH THE GREASE FILTER IN A DISHWASHER.
