Cleaning and Care

Before cleaning or servicing the hood, disconnect it from the power supply by either removing the fuse, unplugging it from the outlet or manually "tripping" the circuit breaker.

Cleaning the casing

,Never use abrasive cleaners, scouring pads, steel wool or caustic (oven) cleaners on the hood. They will damage the surface.

^All external surfaces and controls can be cleaned with warm water and liquid dish soap applied with a soft sponge.

^Wipe dry using a soft cloth.

Do not use too much water when cleaning the controls. Water could penetrate into the electronics and cause damage.

Avoid:

cleaning agents containing soda, acids or chlorides,

abrasive cleaning agents e.g. powder or cream cleansers,

abrasive sponges, e.g. pot scourers or sponges which have been previously used with abrasive cleaning agents.

These will damage the surface.

Stainless steel

Stainless steel surfaces can be cleaned using a non-abrasive stainless steel cleaner.

To help prevent resoiling, a conditioner for stainless steel can also be used. Apply sparingly with even pressure.

Stainless steel colored controls

These controls may become discolored or damaged if not cleaned regularly.

Do not use a stainless steel cleaner on these controls.
