 MAINTENANCE

Before cleaning or carrying out maintenance operations, disconnect the 
equipment by removing the plug or switching of the main switch.
Do not use detergents containing abrasive, acidic or corrosive substances 
or abrasive cloths.

Regular maintenance guarantees proper operation and performance over time.
Special attention is to be paid to the 

metal anti-grease ilters 

: frequent cleaning of the 

ilters and their supports ensures that no lammable grease is accumulated.

CLEANING OF EXTERNAL SURFACES

You are advised to clean the external surfaces of the hood 

at least once every 15 days

to 

prevent oily substances and grease from sticking to them. To clean the brushed stainless 
steel hood, the Manufacturer recommends using "Magic Steel" wipes.
Alternatively 

and for all the other types of surfaces

, it can be cleaned using a damp cloth, 

slightly moistened with mild, liquid detergent or denatured alcohol.
Complete cleaning by rinsing well and drying with soft cloths. 

Do not use too much moisture or water around the push button control 
panel and lighting devices in order to prevent humidity from reaching 
electronic parts.

The glass panels can only be cleaned with speciic, non-corrosive or non-abrasive deter-
gents using a soft cloth.
The Manufacturer declines all responsibility for failure to comply with these instructions.

CLEANING OF INTERNAL SURFACES

Do not clean electrical parts, or parts related to the motor inside the hood, 
with liquids or solvents.

For the internal metal parts, see the previous paragraph.

METAL ANTI-GREASE FILTERS

It is advised to 

frequently

 wash the metal ilters (

at least once a month

) leaving them to 

soak in boiling water and cleaning solution for 1 hour, taking care not to bend them.
Do not use corrosive, acid or alkaline detergents.
Rinse them well and wait for them to be completely dry before reassembling them.
Washing in a dishwasher is permitted, however, it may cause the ilter material to darken: to 
reduce the possibility of this problem from happening, use low-temperature washes (55°C 
max.).
To extract and insert the metal anti-grease ilters see the assembly instructions.

ACTIVE CARBON FILTERS

These ilters retain the odours in the air that passes through them. The puriied air is recircu-
lated into the environment.
The active carbon ilters must be replaced on average every 3-4 months under normal con-
ditions of use.
See assembly instructions to replace the active carbon ilters.

LIGHTING

The range hood is equipped with high eiciency, low consumption LED spotlights with an 

extremely long life-span under normal use conditions.
Should the LED spotlight need to be replaced, proceed as shown in the igure.
