Cleaning and care

Before any cleaning or maintenance work, the extractor must be discon- nected from the mains supply (switch off at the wall socket and remove plug or the fuse).

Cleaning

The cooker hood housing may be cleaned using hot water to which a little mild detergent has been added.

Dry with a soft cloth.

Never use a cleaner which scours or contains chlorine, acids or soda. These would damage the surface of the cooker hood.

Grease filters

Re-usable metal grease filters are built- in which remove solid particles (oil, dust, etc.) from the kitchen vapors, pre- venting soiling of the cooker hood.

The grease filters can be cleaned in a dishwasher or by hand.

The grease filters should be cleaned regularly to ensure a trouble free oper- ation of the extractor fan, at least every 1 or 2 months, or when they are visibly saturated or no longer effective.

An over-greasy filter can lead to danger or fire.

To remove the grease filters push the filter holder retainers towards the middle.

Take out the grease filters.
