Maintenance and care
Disconnect the cooker hood from the power supply prior to cleaning
the appliance, either by removing the plug from the mains or
removing the fuse.
Clean the filter regularly. The grease deposits in the filter and
discharge tube are fire hazards where a hotplate (or another heat
source) is left on by error.
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.
Cleaning the grease filters
Clean the filter every month or every other
month according to how much the hood is
used.
The cleaner the filters, the more grease they
collect. To remove the filters, Fig. 3:
First of all, push the stop on the metal
grease filter back, and then extract the filter
by pulling downward.
The filter is made of aluminium wires on which the
grease collects. Clean the filter in hot water using a
detergent, or in a dishwasher. Let the filter dry before
putting it back. Note that a dishwasher may discolour
the filter.discolouration of the filter can occur, this does not have any
impact on its performance.
Clean the inner housing using a hot detergent solution only (never
use caustic detergents, abrasive powders or brushes).
