efficiency of the extractor hood can also
be adversely affected.
Important:
By cleaning the metal grease filters at
appropriate intervals, the possibility of
them catching fire as a result of a build-up
of heat such as occurs when deep-fat
frying or roasting is taking place, is
reduced.
Saturation indicator:
When the grease filters are saturated
flashes. If you switch the hood off, then
the acoustic signal is removed.
The grease filters should be cleaned
straight away.
Cleaning the metal grease filters:
‰
In normal operation (1-2 hours daily)
the metal grease filter must be
cleaned 1x a month.
‰ The filters can be cleaned in a dish
washer. It is however possible that
they become slightly discoloured.
The filters must be placed loosely and
NOT wedged in the dishwasher
Important: Metal filters that are
saturared with grease should not be
washed together with other dishes.
‰ When clearing the filters by hand,
soak them in hot soapy water first of
all. Do not use aggressive, acidic or
caustic cleaners. Then brush the
filters clean, rinse them thoroughly
and leave the water to drain off.
Removing and installing the metal
grease filters:
Attention: the halogen bulbs must be
switched off and must have cooled down.
1. Follow the steps shown in the M
figures.
2. Depress the handles on the grease
filters and fold down the grease filters.
3. Clean the grease filters.
4. Re-install the cleaned grease filters.
5. Clearing the display.
‰ Press 2x in succession the O
push button. An acoustic signal is
issued and the display goes
out.
Cleaning and care
Isolate the extractor hood by pulling
out the mains plug or switching off the
fuse.
Do not clean the extractor hood with
abrasive sponges or with cleaning agents
which contain sand, soda, acid or chlorine.
‰
Clean the extractor hood with a hot
soap solution or a mild window
cleaner.
‰ Do not scrape off dried-on dirt but
wipe off with a damp cloth.
‰ When clearing the grease filters,
remove grease deposits from
accessibile parts of the housing. This
prevents the risk of fire and ensures
that the extractor hood continues
operating at maximum efficiency.
‰ Note: do not use alcohol (spirit) on
plastic surfances, as dull marks may
appear.
Caution! Ensure that kitchen is
adequately ventilated. Avoid naked
flames.
Clean the operating buttons with a
mild soapy solution and soft, damp cloth
only.
Do not use stainless-steel cleaner to clean
the operating buttons.
