Caring for your Cooker Hood

Before doing any cleaning or replacing the fil- ters or light bulb, always ensure that the elec- tricity supply to the Cooker Hood is switched ‘OFF’.

Filters and their replacement:

THE GREASE FILTER -

Your Cooker Hood is fitted with a grease filter which absorbs grease, dust etc. and helps to keep the appliance clean inside. Gradually the filter will become saturated with grease. When this happens the grease filter must be replaced, usually about every two months depending on use.

IMPORTANT: There could be a possible fire hazard if the grease filter is not replaced when necessary and according to these instructions.

Replacement grease filters are available from your nearest retailer or our Genuine Parts and Accessories Mail Order Hotline (see back cover).

REPLACING THE GREASE FILTER -

The grease filter should be replace every 2 months:

1.Pull the visor out as far as it will go.

2.Remove the filter grille by releasing the two slider catches at each side of the grille.

3.Push the clips to one side and remove.

4.Place the new grease filter in the filter grille.

5.Replace the retaining clips. Refit the grille panel into the hood.

THE CARBON FILTER - (Recirculation only)

The activated carbon filter absorbs odours arising from the cooking. In use, the filter will slowly become saturated and gradually less effective. The filter will normally require changing every six months, depending on the amount and type of cooking you have done.

TO FIT THE CARBON FILTERS -

The deflector

(Fig.17 N) should be Fig.17 fitted over the hole,

fixing it with the special screw provided. The deflector should be fixed to ensure the air flow is away from the wall to avoid dirtying or marking the rear wall .

Place the new carbon filter, ensuring that points Q and R align (Fig. 18). To lock the filter turn in the direction of the arrow (Fig.18 S).

The Hood must not be connected to ducting when in the recirculating mode.

Regular replacement of the charcoal filter will ensure optimum performance from the hood when recirculating.

TO REPLACE THE CARBON FILTER - Remove the grille by turning the locks and pull the grille out and downwards.

Remove the saturated carbon filter by rotating it in an anti-clockwise direction (Fig.19) and replace it with a new one.
