If the hood fails to operate correctly, briefly disconnect it from
the mains power supply for about 5 sec. by pulling out the
plug or switching it off at the main supply. Then plug it in again
and try once more before contacting the Technical Assistance
Service.
Maintenance
Prior to any maintenance operation ensure that the cooker
hood is disconnected from the electrical outlet.
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 oserving these instructions.
Anti-grease Filter
If situated inside the support grill, it may be one of the following
types:
Paper filter must be replaced once a month or if colouring
appears on upper side, in such cases the colouring is evident
through the grill openings.
Sponge filter should be washed with hot soapy water once
a month and replaced every 5 to 6 washes.
Metallic filter must be cleaned once a month, with non
abrasive detergents, by hand or in dishwasher on low
temperature and short cycle.
To obtain access to the grease filter J open the grill K via
the hooks L and free the grill from the stoppers M.
Some models are provided with a metal filter N without
support grill, this filter should be washed as instructions
noted for metallic filter above and is removed from its placing
by pushing the handles O towards the back and sliding the
filter N downwards.
When washed in a dish-washer, the grease filter may
discolour slightly, but this does not affect its filtering capacity.
Only for model with electronic control panel:
Once the grease filters have been cleaned, press button 1
(see preceding page) for about 3 seconds until you hear the
acoustic signal (beep): the LED 4 will now stop flashing.

Replacing lightbulbs
Remove the anti-grease filter support grill or the anti-grease
filter to attain access to the lightbulb area. Remove the
damaged lightbulb and replace with an incandescent oval
bulb max. 40W E14.
If the cooker-hood comes with a halogen light, take off its
protection by unscrewing (Z1) or by removing it (Z2 lifting
with a small flat edged screwdriver). Remove the damaged
bulb and substitute it with a max 20W halogen bulb (G4).
Caution
This appliance is designed to be operated by adults. Children
should not be allowed to tamper with the controls or play with
the appliance.
Do not use the cooker hood where the grill is not correctly
fixed! The suctioned air must not be conveyed in the same
channel used for fumes discharged by appliances powered
by other than electricity. The environment must always be
adequately aerated when the cooker hood and other
appliances powered by other than electricity are used at the
same time. Flambé cooking with a cooker hood is
prohibited. The use of a free flame is damaging to the filters
and may cause fire accidents, therefore free flame cooking
must be avoided. Frying of foods must be kept under close
control in order to avoid overheated oil catching fire. Carry
out fumes discharging in accordance with the regulations in
force by local laws for safety and technical restrictions.
