MAINTENANCE

Cleaning

Important!
For all maintenance first switch off the mains power to the cooker hood by pulling the plug out of the socket or by turning off the home’s master switch. The hood needs to be cleaned regularly, both inside as well as outside (at least in the same frequency as the grease filter cleaning).
Do not use abrasive cleaning products. Do not use alcohol!

Important!
If the instructions regarding cleaning the appliance or replacing the filters are not followed, this can cause a fire. These instructions should be followed! The manufacturer is not liable for damage to the hood or fire damage resulting from incompetent maintenance or from nonadherence to the above safety instructions.

Cooker hood
Clean the cooker hood with soapy water and a soft cloth. Then wash off with clean water. Do not use aggressive cleaning agents such as caustic soda. The cooker hood finish stays in good condition if it is buffed periodically following the application of wax.

Stainless steel cooker hoods
Do not use scouring pads or other abrasive cleaners on stainless steel cooker hoods. Finish with a non-abrasive, non-polishing agent and buff the stainless steel in the direction of the grain.

Metal grease filters
Metal grease filters should be cleaned once a month (or when indicated by the filter cleaning indicator – if present on the model) using a neutral cleaning agent, either by hand or in the dishwasher on a short, lowtemperature program. Place the grease filters with the openings facing downwards in the dishwasher so the water can drain out of the filter.
Aluminium grease filters become dull as a result of dishwasher cleaning agents. This is normal and does not effect the working.

Grease filters

Removing the grease filters

1. Switch off the motor and lighting.
2. Remove the grease filters from the hood by pulling the special handle.

Carbon filter

Replacing the carbon filter

1. The grease filters should first be removed before replacing the carbon filter.
2. Slot the notches of the carbon filter in the specially designed opening.

Note!

• The carbon filter must always be used if the cooker hood does not have an outlet.
• Using a carbon filter creates more sound than when using the cooker hood with an outlet.
• The carbon filter’s operation is optimal at a lower motor speed. You should, therefore, avoid using the boost function.
• Saturation of the carbon filter will eventually occur after more or less prolonged use, depending on the type of cooking and how frequently the grease filter is cleaned.
• It is necessary to replace the carbon filter when indicated by the filter indicator.
• Do not wash or reuse the carbon filter. Saturated carbon is not environmentally friendly, change the filter regularly.

Lighting

This hood is fitted with a light system. This light system has to be replaced by an authorized technician. Do not attempt to replace it by yourself.

The lamp in this household appliance is only suitable for illumination of this appliance. The lamp is not suitable for household room illumination.
