Maintenance and Care

•The hood must always be disconnected from the electricity supply before beginning any maintenance work.

Cleaning the hood

•Clean the outside of the hood using a damp cloth and a mild washing up liquid solution.

•Never use corrosive, abrasive or flammable cleaning products.

•Never insert pointed objects in the motor’s protective grid.

•Never use caustic detergents or abrasive brushes or powders.

•Only ever clean the switch panel and filter grill using a damp cloth and mild washing up liquid solution.

•It is extremely important to clean the unit and change the filters at the recommended intervals. Failure to do so will cause grease deposits to build up that could constitute a fire hazard.

Metal grease filter

•The purpose of the grease filters is to absorb grease particles which form during cooking and it must always be used, either in the external extraction or internal re- circulation function.

Attention: the metal grease filters must be removed and washed, either by hand or in the dishwasher, every four weeks.

Hand washing

Soak grease filters for about one hour in hot water with a grease-loosening cleaner, then rinse off thoroughly with hot water. Repeat the process if necessary. Refit the grease filters when they are dry.

Dishwasher

Place grease filters in the dishwasher. Select most powerful washing programme and highest temperature, at least 65°C. Repeat the process. Refit the grease filters when they are dry.

When washing the metal grease filter in the dishwasher a slight discolouration of the filter can occur, this does not have any impact on its performance.

•Clean the inner housing using a hand hot solution only(never use caustic detergents, abrasive powders or brushes).
