ings:
Green Light: less than 6 working hours
Yellow Light: between 6 and 12 working hours

To re-set the Timer, once the hood is switched-off, push for more
than 5 seconds the bottom T.
Lamp Replacement
The hood has a halogen lamp, take care to not touch it with your
hands when you replace it. Use a dry and not greasy protection
(for example a cloth) in order to avoid a direct contact with skin that
could make the lamp break. Never use lamps with wattage higher
than the one shown on the label inside the hood.
Safety rules
Do not do any flambé cooking underneath the hood. When frying,
never leave the pan alone because the cooking oil could flare up.
Clean all the surfaces frequently to avoid danger of fire. This can
be done with a cloth or/and with a brush drenched with denatured
alcohol or with any other similar substances, except for the button
area (pict. 3). It is also important to remove and clean or substitute
frequently the filter installed in the hood.
Maintenance
NOTE:
Prior to any maintenance, switch off and disconnect from
electrical supply.
1) Under normal cooking conditions the grease filter should be
cleaned every 10-15 days in hot water, to which a suitable
detergent has been added. For reasons of efficiency and
safety regular cleaning is advised. The grease filter may be
subject to a small amount of shrinkage initially.
2) The outer casing of the Cooker Hood should be cleaned with
a damp cloth.
Grease filter
This absorbs vapour-suspended grease particles and protects
the kitchen and furniture from greasy residues. The filter should
be washed every 10 to 15 days (in normal operating conditions).
Dip the filter into a de-greaser solution or put it in the dishwasher.
Make sure not to damage the filter, which is made of several layers
of thin alloy, by hitting or crushing it.
The aluminium filter may change colour, that will have no influ-
ence of the efficiency of the filter, may it improve it.
Replacing or cleaning the filters
It is sufficient to pull the handle down, and then proceed with the
cleaning of the filter and repeat the operation in the opposite way
(pict. 1/1). For a few models equipped with a handle as in Pict. 1/
2 it is sufficient to press the handle towards the rear and rotate
towards the bottom. To remove the aluminium grease filter (pict.
1/3), grab the opening tongue at the filter, pull it in your direction
and move the filter downwards. To reinstall it operates reversed.
