Hotpoint HDA6.5SAB, HDA9.5SAB, HDF9.5SAB, HDF7.5SAB, HDF6.5SAB, HDA7.5SAB manual Maintenance and care

Grease/odour filter warnings

The bar at the top left flashes to indicate that the grease filter is saturated.

The bar at the top right flashes to indicate that the odour filter is saturated.

If both bars are flashing, then both filters are saturated.

You must then clean/replace the grease filter (A) or odour filter (B) or both, accordingly (see “Maintenance and care”). The latter only applies to the filter version.

To reset the filter counter:

Hold down T4 for three seconds while the hood is on.

If both filter warnings are active at the same time, you must reset each separately. The first sequence resets the grease filter, while the second sequence resets the odour filter.

Configuring the hood

To set the operating mode of the hood, hold down T4 for 6 seconds while the product is off.. After a long beep, the type of installation displays:

Ducted

(square at bottom left flashing).

Filter

(square at bottom right flashing).

Periodic cleaning

The hood must be cleaned frequently (at least as often as GB you service the grease filter), inside and out. Use a damp cloth and a neutral liquid detergent with lukewarm water.

Do not use abrasive or corrosive products.

Warning: Failure to observe the hood cleaning and filter cleaning/replacement instructions can result in fires. Follow the instructions carefully. The manufacturer is not liable for any damage to the motor or fires caused by incorrect care or failure to follow the above instructions.

Servicing the grease filter (A)

	The grease filter retains the
	particles of grease produced
	during cooking; it must be
	cleaned at least once a month
	with a non - aggressive
	detergent, either by hand or
A	with a low temperature, short
	dishwasher cycle.
	To extract the grease filter,
	pull the spring loaded handle.

If washed in a dishwasher, the metal filter may change colour, but this does not affect its performance.

Servicing the charcoal filter (B)

The charcoal filter retains unpleasant cooking odours. The filter saturates after a variable time, depending on the type of cooking and how often the grease filter is cleaned. The cartridge must be replaced at least once every twenty months.

This filter can NOT be washed or regenerated

	Disassembly: Remove the
	activated-carbon filter by
B	pressing the two front levers
	which secure it to the hood.

You can change the type of installation by pressing T4. To quit configuration mode, press T1 once; this switches the unit off and saves the last displayed setting.
