Ensure the cooker hood is switched off at the wall socket and the plug removed.
WARNING!
External surfaces are susceptible to scratches and abrasions, so please follow the cleaning instructions to ensure the best possible result is achieved without damage.

Stainless steel surface
These instructions must be followed to avoid fire risk.
Clean stainless steel surfaces using non-abrasive cleaning products that are specifically for use on stainless steel. To ensure best results also use even pressure and follow the grain of the stainless steel. The use of a soft cloth reduces the risk of scratching. If the cloth is wet ensure that a dry soft cloth is used to wipe down the surface again and then apply a stainless steel protector spray to reduce the risk of any surface rust appearing.

Cleaning grease filters
The filters can be cleaned by hand or dishwasher. After cleaning ensure the filters are completely dry before refitting. Grease filters must be removed every four weeks(maximum) for cleaning to reduce the risk of fire.

• By hand – Soak in warm water and some washing-up liquid. For stubborn grease stains use a soft nylon brush to help remove those stains.
• In a dishwasher – Ensure that placement of the filters is made so as to not impede the function of the dishwasher spray arm. Washing the filters in a dishwasher may cause discoloration over time although it will not affect their performance. Filters should be washed separately to crockery and other kitchen utensils.

Removing filters

1. Lift the filter.
   

2. Pull down the filter lock level and then pull the filter assembly down and out of the hood.
   Unscrew all 4 screws on lateral sides, then open the inner filter for cleaning.
