CARE AND CLEANING

Before cleaning your cooker hood or carry out any
maintenance, switch off and remove the plug from
the socket to disconnect it from the electricity
supply.

GREASE FILTERS: CLEANING METAL SELF- SUPPORTING GREASE FILTERS

The filters must be cleaned every 2 months of
operation, or more frequently with heavy usage,
and can be washed in a dishwasher.
• Remove the filters one at a time by pushing

them towards the back and pulling down at the
same time.

• Wash the filters, taking care not to bend them.

Allow them to dry before refitting.

• When refitting the filters, make sure that the

handle is visible on the outside.

• Remove the bulb from the support.
• Replace with another of the same type, making

sure that the two pins are properly inserted in
the bulb holder socket holes.

• Replace the support, fixing it in place with the

two screws removed as above.

CLEANING

• Clean with a sponge soaked in warm water and

a sodium bicarbonate solution, which is among
other things a good disinfectant. If you do not
have any, you can use a neutral soap.

• DO NOT use abrasive detergents, bleach or

detergents using ammonia. NEVER use solvent
based products.

Failure to carry out the basic standards of cleaning and replacement of the filters could cause a fire
risk. Therefore you must observe these instructions.
