Maintenance and care
The hood must always be disconnected from the electricity
supply before beginning any maintenance work.
Never insert pointed objects in the motors protective grid.
Wash the outside surfaces using a delicate detergent solution. Never
use caustic detergents or abrasive brushes or powders.
Only ever clean the switch panel and filter grille using a damp cloth
and delicate detergents.
It is extremely important to clean the unit and change the filters at
the recommended intervals. Failure to do so will cause grease
deposits to build up that could constitute a fire hazard.
Metal grease filter
The purpose of the grease filters is to aspirate grease particles which
form during cooking and it must always be used, either in the
extraction or internal recirculation function.
Attention: the metal grease filters must be removed and washed,
either by hand or in the dishwasher, every four weeks.
Open the metal grease filter
Pull out the visor, remove the rear grease filter pulling the handle
designed for this purpose, then proceed in the same way to remove
the front grease filter. Fig. 2.
Hand washing
Soak grease filters for about one hour in hot water with a grease-
loosening cleaner, then rinse off thoroughly with hot water. Repeat
the process if necessary. Refit the grease filters when they are dry.
Dishwasher
Place grease filters in dishwasher. Select most powerful washing
programme and highest temperature, at least 65°C. Repeat the
process. Refit the grease filters when they are dry.
When washing the metal grease filter in the dishwasher a slight
discolouration of the filter can occur, this does not have any impact
on its performance.
Clean the inner housing using a hot detergent solution only (never
use caustic detergents, abrasive powders or brushes).
