Operating procedure
The most effective method of removing
vapours produced during cooking is to:
Switch the ventilator ON as
soon as
you begin cooking.
Switch the ventilator OFF a
few
minutes after you have finished cooking.
Switching ON:
Slide the right slide switch to the desired
fan setting.
Switching OFF:
Slide the right slide switch back to
0.
Lighting:
The light can be switched on at any time,
even though the fan is switched off.
Filters and maintenance
Grease filters:
Metal filters are used to trap the greasy
element of the vapours that develop during
cooking.
The filter mats are made from
noncombustible metal.
Caution:
As the filter becomes more and more
saturated with grease, not only does the risk
of it catching fire increase but the 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.
Cleaning the metal grease filters:
In normal operation (1 to 2 hours daily),
the metal grease filter must be cleaned
after 8 to 10 weeks.
The filters can be cleaned in a
dishwasher. It is however possible that
they will become slightly discoloured.
The filter must be placed loosely, and
NOT wedged, in the dishwasher.
Important: Metal
filters that are
saturated with grease should not be
washed together with other dishes etc.
When cleaning the filters by hand, soak
them in hot soapy water first of all. Then
brush the filters clean, rinse them
thoroughly and leave the water to drain
off.
