ATAG WU50, WU70 Cooker Hood
Introduction
Congratulations on choosing this ATAG cooker hood. This product is designed with simple operation and optimum comfort in mind.
The cooker hood works silently and extracts at maximum efficiency. With this hood, cooking odours are a thing of the past.
First read the separate safety instructions before using the appliance!
Read this user manual thoroughly before you first use the appliance, and store the manual safely for future use.
You can find the most recent version of the instructions for use on our website.
The cooker hood can be connected in two ways:
-
As a cooker hood connected to an exhaust duct.
The extracted and filtered cooking vapours are removed to the outdoors. -
As a recirculation cooker hood.
The grease particles and the odour from the extracted cooking vapours are filtered. The extracted air is not removed but is returned to the kitchen. Therefore, you must fit a carbon filter.
Exhaust systems
Note!
The carbon filter must be ordered separately.

Cleaning
Note! Before each servicing, first disconnect the cooker hood by removing
the plug from the wall socket or by switching off the main switch of the
residence. The hood must be cleaned regularly, both inside as well as outside
(with at least the same regularity as used for cleaning the grease filters).
Do not use any products that contain abrasive materials.
Do not use alcohol!
Note! If you do not follow these instructions with regards to the
cleaning of the appliance and the cleaning or replacement of the filters, this
can lead to fire. It is essential to follow these instructions!
The manufacturer is not liable for damage to the motor or damage as a result
of fire that is due to improper servicing or not following the above safety
requirements.
Cooker hood
Clean the cooker hood with soapy water and a soft cloth. Then treat with clean
water. Do not use any aggressive cleaning agents such as soda. The lacquer of
the cooker hood will remain in good condition if you rub the lacquer with wax
once in a while.
Metal grease filters
Metal filters must be cleaned once per month (or when the filter cleaning
indicator – if present on the model – specifies this). Clean the filters with
neutral cleaning agents, by hand or in the dishwasher at low temperatures and
with a short programme. Place the grease filters in the dishwasher with the
openings facing down so that water can run out. Aluminium grease filters will
become dull from the cleaning agents in the dishwasher. This is normal and
does not affect the working of the filters.
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.
Removing grease filters
- Push in the handle of the filter and remove the grease filter.
Replacing the carbon filter
Use a carbon filter if the cooker hood is not connected to an exhaust duct.
Important:
- 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.
- The carbon filter must be replaced at least every six months (or when the indicator – if present on the model – specifies this).
- Carbon filters are not washable for reuse. Saturated carbon is not environmentally friendly, so replace the filter on time.

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.
