Caution!
Never use abrasive or oil based liquid cleaners.
General maintenance
The manufacturer is not liable for any damage caused by not following these instructions.
The rangehood should be cleaned regularly using warm water with soap or mild liquid
detergents. This ensures that no build-up of grease occurs as these deposits are corrosive.
Do not use abrasives or harsh detergents/cleaning fluids.
Note: in areas of high humidity and coastal environments cleaning should be carried out
frequently.
Aluminium filter
The grease filter must be periodically cleaned (at least every two months).
Remove the grease filter and wash either by hand using hot soapy water or in the dishwasher
using mild detergent. A badly smoked filter may be cleaned with “cookware cleaners”.
Note: some discolouration of the frame may occur.
When installing or replacing a filter, remove the protective plastic covering from the filter.
Charcoal filter
Charcoal filters are designed to remove grease and odours from cooking vapours, prior to the
cleansed air re-entering the kitchen (when the rangehood is in recirculating mode). Charcoal
filters are disposable items and it is recommended that these should be replaced every three to
six months depending on use.
Note:
Fully saturated charcoal filters can become a barrier to air movement, impeding the rangehood’s
performance.
In the event of fire, fully grease laden filters could be flammable and therefore regular
replacement is recommended.
In ducted installations, conventional aluminium filters are recommended.
For replacement charcoal filters, ducting accessories, spare parts and service, please contact your
local supplier or Fisher & Paykel Customer Care Centre.
