rETigo recommends using a servicing firm for cleaning and regular
inspections of the appliance.
only regular inspection and cleaning can prevent wear and tear and
possible damage to the appliance.
a preventive servicing inspection should be made after one year of
operation.
The washable components of the hood (grease filters, steam trap,
dividing bar) and the inside of the hood should be washed with
warm water and soap.
place the heat exchanger in a suitable location for the water to
drain away, with the three service openings (1) facing upwards (see
fig. 23). apply the soap to the heat exchanger through these three
openings and leave to soak for 15 minutes. Then rinse the heat
exchanger with hot water.
repeat the procedure until the heat exchanger is clean.
after all the parts have dried, reassemble.
