Cleaning
o
Clean the external parts of your cooker hood with mild liquid
detergent and a new damp cloth.
o
Never use abrasive powder, corrosive solvents or brushes.
o
Never insert pointed objects into the motor’s protective grid.
o
Only clean the control panel and grease filter grill with mild liquid
detergents and a new damp cloth.
o
If you are using the appliance in recirculation mode, then be
sure to replace the carbon filter at the recommended interval
(see section on “Fitting the carbon filter”). A build up of grease
could cause a fire hazard.
o
Never attempt to clean the area above the grease filters.
The grease filter
o
Your cooker hood includes a grease filter which helps to absorb
grease particles to protect your kitchen & furniture from greasy
residues.
o
This metallic filter may become inflammable if it becomes
saturated with this greasy residue.
o
To prevent this fire hazard, the filter should be cleaned regularly.
Depending on use, this should be done every 10-15 days or at
least once a month, using hot water and normal washing-up
detergent.
o
DO NOT WASH THE GREASE FILTER IN A DISHWASHER.
