MAINTENANCE
Disconnect the appliance from the
electrical power supply before doing any
type of maintenance.
The performance and operation of the hood
depends directly upon the frequency of
cleaning and maintenance. This holds
especially true for the aluminum grates (G)
and the activated charcoal filter (C).
The grate serves to trap grease particles and
solids suspended in the air. Therefore, it is
subject to getting clogged over time, and the
speed at which it gets clogged depends on
how the hood is used and the type of cooker
installed.
The grates made of cold-drawn aluminum
should be washed by hand or in the
dishwasher once a month. Let dry before
remounting.
If these cleaning instructions are not
followed, it will result in the risk of fire.
Activated Charcoal Filter
The activated charcoal filter is only present
on the ventless, filtering version and serves
to trap odors and clean the air. The life of
the charcoal filter will depend on the type of
cooker and the regularity with which the
grease filters are cleaned. In any case, the
cartridge must be replaced at least once
every four months.
Clean all deposits on the fan and the other
surfaces of the hood frequently with a cloth
dampened with denatured alcohol or non-
abrasive liquid detergents.
REPLACING HALOGEN LAMPS
- Unplug the appliance from the electrical
power supply;
- For removal, extract the glass-bearing
frame of the spotlight.
- Replace the faulty lamps, using only 20W
(max) halogen lamps;
- Remount the chrome-plated diffuser
rings.
WARNING
The cooking vapors must not be discharged
into a flue used for venting combustion fumes
or gases, nor into a duct used as a flue for
rooms in which open flame appliances are
installed. The installation for the discharge
of the vapors must comply with all local and
national codes and safety standards. If the
hood is being used in the outdoor vented
mode where other vented fuel-burning
appliances are installed, you must check to
make sure that there is a sufficient supply of
air to the room.
- Do not attempt to check the filters while
the hood is in operation.
- Do not obstruct the ventilation slots for
discharging the air.
- Do not touch the lamps or the lamp
diffusers after prolonged use of the hood.
- Flambéing food beneath the hood is
strictly prohibited.
- Avoid using an open flame, as it could
damage the filters and increase the risk
of fire.
- Never leave frying food unattended to
prevent hot oil from catching fire.
- Before performing any maintenance,
disconnect the hood from the electrical
mains.
- The manufacturer will not be held liable
for damages caused by the failure to
follow the foregoing instructions.
