Cleaning and Care

￿WARNING

TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRIC SHOCK, OR INJURY TO PERSONS, OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING:

Before cleaning or servicing the hood, disconnect it from the power supply, see "Important Safety Instructions".

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 a mild solution of warm water and liquid dish soap applied with a soft sponge.

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

￿Wipe dry using a soft cloth. 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.

The following instructions for cleaning "Stainless steel" surfaces and "Stainless steel colored controls" should be followed in addition to the general "Cleaning the casing" instructions.

Special instructions for stainless steel surfaces

(not applicable to the controls)

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

To help prevent resoiling, a conditioner for stainless steel can be applied.

Special instructions for colored casings

(Special order)

It is very difficult to clean this type of surface without causing minor marks to the surface material. This can become particularly noticeable with darker colors and if there is halogen lighting in the kitchen.

Stainless steel colored controls

These controls may become dis- colored or damaged if not cleaned regularly.

Do not use a stainless steel cleaner on these controls.
