Guides
Maintenance and care
• The hood must always be disconnected from the electricity
supply before beginning any maintenance work.
• Never insert pointed objects in the motor’s protective grid.
• Wash the outside surfaces using a delicate detergent solution. Never
use caustic detergents or abrasive brushes or powders.
• Only ever clean the switch panel and filter grille using a damp cloth
and delicate detergents.
• It is extremely important to clean the unit and change the filters at
the recommended intervals. Failure to do so will cause grease
deposits to build up that could constitute a fire hazard.
Grease Filter
• The purpose of the grease filters is to absorb grease particles which
form during cooking and it must always be used, either in the
external evacuation or internal recycling function.
The synthetic filter is very thin (approx. 1 mm) and positioned on the
inside of its related support grille.
The filter should be changed once a month.
• The grille should be cleaned with luke warm water and non-abrasive
detergent when you change the filter.
• The grease filter can be ordered from your local ELECTROLUX
Service Force Centre.
Opening the grid
• Move the two sliders towards the centre (in the “OPEN” direction)
and release the grille downwards. Fig. 6.
To refit the grid: it should be inserted above between the
appropriate guides until it latches into place, and after having
propped the grille to the cooker hood also in the lower part move the
two sliders outwards (in the “CLOSED” direction).
Removing the filter
Remove the stops to take out the filter. Fig. 6.
• Clean the inner housing using a hot detergent solution only (never
use caustic detergents, abrasive powders or brushes).
