Maintenance
Before performing any maintenance
operation, disconnect the hood from
the electricity.

Grease filter

This serves to hold the grease particles in suspen-
sion. The metal filter should be washed every
month with warm soapy water or, if possible, in the
dishwasher (60°C).
To remove:
Open the grid (A - fig. 7).
Remove the stops (fig. 11).
Leave to dry before refitting it.
Clean the grid too as well as the grease filter.

Carbon filter

This filter dissolves cooking odours.
It should be changed every 4-5 months in normal
use.
The carbon filter must never be washed.
In order to remove it turn the filter anti-clockwise
until it becomes unhooked from its seat. (Fig. 9).

Attention

Failure to observe the rules for cleaning the appli-
ance and changing and cleaning the filters may
cause fires. Therefore, we recommend observing
these instructions.

Important to know

If the hood is run at the same time as a burner or
fireplace that depend on ambient air (for example
gas, Diesel, coal or wood heaters, water heaters,
etc.) be careful, because the hood, when it exhausts
the air, removes the ambient air required by the
burner or fireplace for combustion.
Not valid if the cooker hood is used in
recirculation mode.

Cleaning

To clean the outside of the hood use a cloth mois-
tened with denatured alcohol or neutral liquid
detergents. Never use products containing
abrasives.

Changing the lighting elements

Disconnect the hood from the electricity.
Open the grid (Fig. 7).
Replace the damaged part with one of equal
rating.
