If present, the cooker hood can also be disconnected from the power supply with the On / Off switch located at the top of the cooker hood.
The inside and outside of the cooker hood must be cleaned at regular intervals. Do not use abrasive products. Do not clean with alcohol!
Note!
Failure to follow these instructions for cleaning the appliance and replacing the filters can result in fire. Always follow these instructions! The manufacturer is not liable for damage to the hood or damage caused by a fire that is due to inexpert maintenance or the failure to follow the aforementioned recommendations and the safety instructions supplied with the appliance.
Clean the cooker hood with a soft cloth with water and a little detergent. Then wipe with clean water. Do not use corrosive cleaning agents such as soda, and do not use scouring sponges or similar. Treat with a product designed for the maintenance of stainless steel and polish in the direction of the surface finish of the stainless steel.

Metal grease filters

Metal filters must be cleaned once per month (or when the filter cleaning indicator – if present on the model – indicates that this is necessary). Clean the filters with neutral cleaning agents, by hand or in the dishwasher at low temperatures and with a short program. Put the grease filters in the dishwasher with the openings facing down so that the water can drain. Aluminum grease filters will become dull from the cleaning agents in the dishwasher. This is normal and does not affect the performance.
The saturation of the filter depends on the intensity of use, the manner of cooking, and the regularity with which the grease filters are cleaned.
