Warning

• Failure to observe the instructions on cleaning

the unit and changing the filters will cause a fire

hazard. You are therefore strongly

recommended to follow these instructions.

• The manufacturer declines all responsibility for

any damage to the motor or any fire damage

linked to inappropriate maintenance or failure to

observe the above safety recommendations..

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.

• Never insert pointed objects in the motor’s

protective grid.

• Wash the outside surfaces using a delicate

detergent solution. Never use caustic detergents

or abrasive brushes or powders.

• Only ever clean the switch panel and filter grille

using a damp cloth and delicate detergents.

• It is extremely important to clean the unit and

change the filters at the recommended intervals.

Failure to do so will cause grease deposits to

build up that could constitute a fire hazard.

Metal  grease  filter

• The purpose of the grease filters is to absorb

grease particles which form during cooking and

it 

must

 always be used, either in the external

extraction or internal recycling function.

Attention: the metal grease filters must be

removed and washed, either by hand or in the

dishwasher, every four weeks.

Removing the metal grease filter

• First, push the metal grease filter stop

backwards, then extract the filter, pulling

downwards.

.

Hand washing

Soak grease filters for about one hour in hot

water with a little washing-up liquid, then rinse

off thoroughly with hot water. Repeat the

process if necessary. Refit the grease filters

when they are dry.

Dishwasher

Place grease filters in the dishwasher. Select

most powerful washing programme and highest

temperature, at least 65°C. Repeat the process.

Refit the grease filters when they are dry.

When washing the metal grease filter in the

dishwasher a slight 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).

•

The  hood  must  always  be  disconnected  from  the  electricity  supply  before  beginning  any

maintenance  work.
