Maintenance
Prior to any maintenance operation ensure that the cooker hood is disconnected from the power supply.
Cleaning: 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 observing these instructions.
Grease filter
This must be cleaned once a month (or when the filter saturation indication system – if envisaged on the model in possession – indicates this necessity – see previous page) using non aggressive detergents, either by hand or in the dishwasher, which must be set to a low temperature and a short cycle. When washed in a dishwasher, 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. 2).
Charcoal filter (filter version only)
It absorbs unpleasant odours caused by cooking.
The charcoal filter can be washed once every two months (or when the filter saturation indication system – if envisaged on the model in possession – indicates this necessity – see previous page) using hot water and a suitable detergent, or in a dishwasher at 65°C (if the dishwasher 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.
Remove the filter holder frame by turning the knobs (g) 90° that affix the chimney to the cooker hood (Fig. 3).
Insert the pad (i) of activated carbon into the frame (h) and fit the whole back into its housing (j).
It is possible to use a traditional carbon filter, neither washable nor regenerable, to be replaced every 3 - 4 months.
The filter holder frame of the carbon filter is welded together; the eventual frame supplied with the hood is not, therefore, to be used.
Insert it into its housing and fix it turning the 2 plastic knobs.
