Care and Maintenance
IMPORTANT: DO NOT PERFORM MAINTENANCE OR CLEANING OF THE EXTRACTOR WITHOUT FIRST
SWITCHING OFF THE ELECTRICITY SUPPLY.
Cleaning
You should use a non-abrasive cleaner. Any abrasive cleaner (including Cif) will scratch the surface and could erase
the control panel markings.
You can clean you extractor effectively by simply using a dilute solution of water and mild detergent and drying to a
shine with a clean cloth, for example the CDA E-Cloth.
Cleaning the grease filters
The grease filters should be kept clean to minimize the risk
of fire.
At least once a month you should remove and clean the grease
filters with hot soapy water.
To remove the grease filters, follow the steps below:
1. Open the extractor fully as shown in fig 2.
2. Pull open the handle on the grease filter as shown in fig.
2. It will release at the handle side. Then lower the
grease filter to remove it completely.
To replace the grease filters, repeat the steps in reverse.
Please note:
Cleaning the grease filters in the dishwasher may lead to
discolouration. This is normal and does not constitute a fault
with the appliance.
IMPORTANT:
The extractor must not be used without the grease
filter in place.
Changing the charcoal filter
To ensure best performance of your extractor, you should replace
the charcoal filters every four to six months, depending on use.
Please note the charcoal filter cannot be washed. To attach a new
charcoal filter, follow the steps below.
1. Remove the grease filters as described above.
2. Place the charcoal filter on the centre of the motor
support, and once firmly located turn the charcoal filter
clockwise 90˚ until you hear a click which locks the charcoal
filter into position.
3. Replace the grease filters.
