When handling lamps hold with a cloth or gloves to
ensure perspiration does not come into contact with the
lamp as this can reduce the life of the lamp.
IMPORTANT: The hood must always be disconnected
from the electricity supply before beginning any
maintenenace work.

CARE & MAINTENENCE
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
Changing the halogen lamps
Place grease filters in the dishwasher. Select the most
powerful washing program 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 it’s performance.
If halogen lamps need replacing, they must be replaced by
lamps with an aluminium reflector, never dichroic lamps to
avoid unnecessary overheating in the lamp holders.
NOTE: The metal grease filters must be removed and
washed,either by hand or in the dishwasher, every four weeks.
• Clean the inner housing using warm water and grease
loosening cleaner (never use caustic detergents, abrasive
powders or brushes).
Charcoal filter
• The charcoal filter should only be used if you want to use
the hood in the recirculation function.
• This filter cannot be cleaned or re-used and as a general
rule, the activated charcoal filter should be changed once
every four months.
Fitting the charcoal filter
Fit one charcoal filter on the left and one on the right so as
to cover the plastic grids that protect the fan wheel.
• Always specify the hood model code number and
serial number when ordering replacement filters. This
information is shown on the registration plate located on
the inside of this unit.
• Replacement charcoal filters can be ordered from your
local Service Centre.
Ensure that the appliance is switched off before carrying
out maintenance to avoid any possibility of electric shock.
