Before performing any maintenance and/or cleaning always disconnect the hood
from the power supply
Regular cleaning guarantees good operation and a long appliance service life. The
grease filters and filter hoods with carbon filters require special care.
N.B. The accumulation of grease inside the filter panels as well as affecting the
performance of the extractor, can also create a fire hazard.
FUNCTIONS AND MAINTENANCE:
EXTERNAL CLEANING:
The external and internal cleaning of the hood must be
carried out using a damp cloth and mild liquid detergent. Completely avoid the use
of solvents or abrasives. It is recommended to use specific products, following the
instructions on the product. It is advisable to clean the hood by always rubbing the
steel in the direction of the surface finish.
N.B. In some countries, the 4-speed version
is also available, with the layout shown on the

Particular attention should be paid to the metal grease
filter panels. The accumulation of grease inside the
filter panels as well as affecting the performance of the
extractor, can also create a fire hazard.
In order to minimise the risk of fire, the filters must be
cleaned regularly, at least once a month or with greater
frequency in the case of a particularly intensive use of
the appliance.
After identifying your hood model, remove one filter at
a time as shown in the next figure. Thoroughly wash
filters with a mild detergent either by hand or in the
dishwasher. Replace the filters, making sure that the
handle is on the outside of the hood
METAL FILTER CLEANING:
The carbon filters are capable of retaining odours
until the carbon reaches
saturation level
. They cannot be washed and they are not renewable, therefore, it is
recommended to replace them at least every six months or more often if the hood is
used often.
Before starting operations make sure the electrical power supply to the hood is
disconnected.
Access the active carbon filters by removing the metal filters as described above.
With the help of the figures, identify the carbon filters kit supplied with the hood.
