Filters and maintenance

ATTENTION! Before performing any maintenance operation, isolate the hood from the electrical

supply by switching off at the connector and removing the connector fuse.
Or if the appliance has been connected through a plug and socket, then the plug must be

removed from the socket.

Maintenance of the panel

Dismantling:
Extract with decision (LOWER SIDE) and

rotate upwards.

Cleaning:
The panel must be cleaned as often as the

grease filter, wash by hand with non-

abrasive detergents.
Do not wash in dishwasher. Use the

drainpipes placed near the corners at the

back to make the water left inside flow.
DO NOT USE ALCOHOL!
Montage:
Proceed in the reverse direction for

dismantling.
Attention! Always check that the panel is

fixed in its place well.

.

Grease filters:

Metal filters are used to trap the greasy

element of the vapours that develop during
cooking.

The filter mats are made from

noncombustible metal.

Caution:

As the filter becomes more and more

saturated with grease, not only does the risk
of it catching fire increase but the efficiency

of the extractor hood can also be adversely

affected.

Important:

By cleaning the metal grease filters at

appropriate intervals, the possibility of them
catching fire as a result of a build-up of heat

such as occurs when deep-fat frying or

roasting is taking place, is reduced.

Cleaning the metal grease filters:

❑ These must be cleaned once a month (or

when the filter saturation indication

system – if envisaged on the model in
possession – indicates this necessity).

❑ The filters can be cleaned in a

dishwasher. It is however possible that

they will become slightly discoloured.

❑ The filter must be placed loosely, and

NOT wedged, in the dishwasher.
Important: Metal filters that are saturated

with grease should not be washed

together with other dishes etc.

❑ When cleaning the filters by hand, soak

them in hot soapy water first of all. Then

brush the filters clean, rinse them
thoroughly and leave the water to drain

off.
