4/ CLEANING THE HOOD EN
Careful maintenance helps guarantee proper operation and good results from an appliance
over time.
The hood must be unplugged from the electrical power source, both by unplugging
the appliance from the socket as well as de-activating the breaker, before removing the
metal filters. After cleaning, you must replace the metal filters as outlined in the instruc-
tions.
MAINTENANCE HOW TO PROCEED?
ACCESSORY PRODUCTS TO
USE
External surfaces and
accessories
Do not use metallic scrub-
bers, abrasive products, or
hard brushes.
To clean the external sur-
faces of the hood and the
light housing screen use
only commercially available
household detergents dilut-
ed in water. Then rinse with
clean water and dry with a
soft cloth.
Grease filter
After 30 hours’ operation,
the button pad will sig-
nal that the grease filter is
saturated by flashing the 4
speed LEDs. Press the timer
button to reset .
The grease filters can be
washed by hand or in the
dishwasher. These filters
need to be cleaned on a reg-
ular basis because otherwise
they may present a fire risk.
Refit the grease filters and
front panel, making sure that
the panel is properly fitted at
the sides so that it does not
cause the downdraft to stop
operating.
Active carbon filter
In the recirculation mode,
you must substitute the ac-
tive carbon filter periodically.
To remove the carbon filter
it is necessary first of all to
remove the grease filter and
then to pull the plastic key of
the panel itself to remove it
from its seating.
Follow these steps in reverse
order to insert the active car-
bon filter.
Replace the used carbon fil-
ter on an average of every six
months.
