Maintenance
Prior to any maintenance operation ensure that the cooker hood is
disconnected from the power supply.
Cleaning the hood
The cooker hood should be cleaned regularly internally and externally.
For cleaning use a cloth moistened with denatured alcohol or neutral
liquid detergents. Avoid abrasive detergents.
Warning:
Failure to carry out the basic standards of the cleaning of the cooker
hood and replacement of the filters may cause fire risks.
Therefore we recommend oserving these instructions.
Grease filter
This must be cleaned once a month using non aggressive detergents,
either by hand or in the dish-washer, which must be set to a low
temperature and a short cycle.
When washed in a dish-washer, the grease filter may discolour
slightly, but this does not affect its filtering capacity.
To remove the grease filter, pull the spring release handle (f) - (Fig. 1).
Charcoal filter (filter version only)
It absorbs unpleasant odours caused by cooking.
The charcoal filter can be washed once every two months using hot
water and a suitable detergent, or in a dish-washer at 65°C (if the dish-
washer is used, select the full cycle function and leave dishes out).
Eliminate excess water without damaging the filter, then remove the
mattress located inside the plastic frame and put it in the oven for 10
minutes at 100° C to dry completely. Replace the mattress every 3
years and when the cloth is damaged.	7
Remove the filter holder frame by turning the knobs (g) 90° that affix

the chimney to the cooker hood (Fig. 2).

Insert the pad (i) of activated carbon into the frame (h) and fit the whole back into its housing (j).

Caution

The appliance is not intended for use by young children or infirm persons without supervision.

Young children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.

WARNING - Ensure that the appliance is switched off before replacing the lamp to avoid the possibility of electric shock.

Do not use the cooker hood where the grill is not correctly fixed! The suctioned air must not be conveyed in the same channel used for fumes discharged by appliances powered by other than electricity. The environment must always be adequately aerated when the cooker hood and other appliances powered by other than electricity are used at the same time. Flambé cooking with a cooker hood is prohibited. The use of a free flame is damaging to the filters and may cause fire accidents, therefore free flame cooking must be avoided. Frying of foods must be kept under close control in order to avoid overheatedoilcatchingfire.Carryoutfumesdischarginginaccordance with the regulations in force by local laws for safety and technical restrictions.
