MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING
Before carrying out any maintenance or
cleaning isolate the cooker hood from the
mains supply.
The cooker hood must be kept clean, as a
build up of grease or fat can be a fire hazard.
External Cleaning
Wipe the cooker hood frequently with warm
soapy water using a mild detergent.
Never use scouring pads or abrasive cleaners.
Never use excessive amounts of water when
cleaning particularly around the control panel.
Metal Grease Filter
The grease filter absorbs grease and dust during cooking
to help keep the appliance clean inside, and should be
cleaned approximately once every month or more often
according to use.
Removing the metal Grease Filters
1.
Remove the metal grease filters one at a time.
2.
Applying slight inward pressure to the metal bar
situated in the slot, this will release the securing
bolts.
3.
Once the slot with the metal bar is released, the
metal grease filter can be removed.
4.
When replacing the filter panels ensure that the
securing bolts face downwards.
The metal grease filters should be washed, by hand, in
mild soapy water or in a dishwasher. Allow to dry
completely before replacing.
