The hood must always be disconnected from the electricity supply before beginning any maintenance
work.

Cleaning the hood

Clean the outside of the hood using a damp
cloth and a mild detergent.

Never use corrosive, abrasive or flammable
cleaning products.

Never insert pointed objects in the motor’s
protective grid.

Wash the outside surfaces using a delicate
detergent solution. Never use caustic detergents
or abrasive brushes or powders.

Only ever clean the control panel and filter grille
using a damp cloth and delicate detergents.

It is very important to clean the hood and to
perform maintenance and care of filters at the
recommended intervals. Failure to do so could
cause grease deposits to build up, resulting in a
fire hazard.

Clean the inner housing using a hot detergent
solution only (never use caustic detergents,
abrasive powders or brushes).

Grease filter

The purpose of the grease filters is to absorb
grease particles which form during cooking and
it 

must

 always be used, either in the external

extraction or internal recycling function.

Metal grease filter

The metal grease filters must be removed and
washed, either by hand or in the dishwasher,
every four weeks.

Removing the metal grease filter

Pull the handle downwards.

.

Hand washing

Soak grease filters for about one hour in hot
water with a grease-loosening cleaner, then
rinse off thoroughly with hot water. Repeat the
process if necessary. Refit the grease filters
when they are dry.

Dishwasher

Place grease filters in the dishwasher. Select
most powerful washing programme and highest
temperature, at least 65°C. Repeat the process.
Refit the grease filters when they are dry.
When washing the metal grease filter in the
dishwasher a slight discolouration of the filter
can occur, this does not have any impact on its
performance.
