MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING
Regular maintenance and cleaning will ensure good performance and reliability, while extending the working life of the hood. Special attention should be paid to the grease
filter cassettes and charcoal filter when the hood is used in the recirculation mode.
Before carrying out any maintenance or cleaning isolate the cooker hood from the mains
supply.
CLEANING
We recommend the chimney hood is cleaned using a damp cloth wrung out in warm soapy
water using a mild liquid household cleaner.
Never use excessive amounts of water when cleaning, in particular around the control panel.
Never use thinners or products containing alcohol, as they will damage the painted or bright metal finishes.
Never use abrasive cleaning materials, or scouring pads, in particular when cleaning painted or
bright metal finishes.
METAL GREASE FILTERS
The grease filters absorb grease and dust during cooking to help keep the chimney hood clean inside, and should be cleaned every month with normal usage or more frequently if the hood is used consistently over 4 hours
per day.
Remove the metal grease filters one at
a time, by pressing the release catch towards the rear of the chimney hood as illustrated opposite. When replacing the filters ensure the handle faces forwards.
The metal grease filters can be washed in a dishwasher or by hand using a mild detergent or liquid soap. Allow the filters to dry completely before replacing.
