Grease filters:
Metal grease filters have an unlimited life and should be
washed once a month either by hand or in a dishwasher at a
low temperature and with a short cycle. Remove the carbon
filter before washing the grease filter. Washing in a
dishwasher can cause grease filters to turn white, but this in
no way affects efficiency.
1. Disconnect the electrical power supply.
2. Open the front panel.
3. Remove the grease filter/s (Fig. 2). To do so, pull the
spring release handle back (f1) then remove the filter/s
(f2).
Wash the filter and leave it to dry, proceeding in reverse
order to refit it.
Replacing the halogen bulbs:
1. Disconnect the hood from the mains power supply.
WARNING: Wear gloves.
2. Use a small screwdriver to gently prise the lamp cover off
(at the points indicated in Fig. 3).
3. Remove the burnt-out lamp from the lamp holder and fit
a new one.
WARNING: Replace using 20W max G4 halogen bulbs
only.
4. Close the lighting unit (snap-on).
Active carbon filter
(filter hoods only):
The carbon filter must be cleaned once a month in a
dishwasher at the highest temperature, using a normal
dishwasher detergent. Wash the filters on their own.
After washing, reactivate the carbon filter by drying it in the
oven at 100°C for 10 minutes.
Change the carbon filter every 3 years.
Fitting the carbon filter:
1. Open the front panel and remove the grease filter (Fig. 2).
2. Install the carbon filter behind the grease filter and fasten
with two fixing elements (Fig. 4), to be inserted in the
holes obtained in the frame.
To remove the filter, proceed in reverse order.
