Maintenance and care
• The hood must always be disconnected from the electricity supply before
beginning any maintenance work.
Cleaning the hood
• Clean the outside of the hood using a damp cloth and a mild detergent.
• Never use corrosive, abrasive or flammable cleaning products.
• Never insert pointed objects in the motor’s 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 absorb
grease particles which form during cooking
and it must always be used, either in the
external extraction or internal recycling
function.
Attention: the metal grease filters must be
removed and washed, either by hand or in the
dishwasher, every four weeks.
Removing the metal grease
filter
• First, push the metal grease filter stop
backwards, then extract the filter, pulling downwards. Fig. 3.
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 the dishwasher. Select the 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.
