Use of the hood
The hood is fitted with a control panel with
aspiration speed selection control and a light
switch to control cooking area lights.
For the best performance, we recommend
using the low speeds in normal conditions and
the high speeds when strong odour and vapour
concentrations are present.
Light should be switched ON to improve cooking
area visibility.
It is advisable to switch on the extractor hood a
few minutes before starting cooking and then
to leave it running for approximately 5 minutes
afterwards to ensure that all odours are
extracted.
Maintenance
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.
Metal grease filter
The grease filter serves to trap grease particles
present on cooking fumes.
The metal grease filter lasts forever and must
be washed either by hand or in the dishwasher
(65°C) with suitable detergents.
The grease filters must be washed at least
once a month.
When washed in a dishwasher, the metal grease
filter may discolour. It’s filtering properties will
nevertheless remain unaltered.
Let the filter dry without damaging it before
putting it back into place.
To remove the metal grease filter
(according model you own:Fig. 2-a-b-c-d)
1. Disconnect the hood from the electricity.
2. Push handles A toward the centre
The model with the grill support (see fig. 2d)
has an internal metal filter.
To release the grease filter support from the
hood, pull the release buttons B (Fig. 3) inwards.
To extract the metal grease filter from the
support grill, pull from right to left and extract
the grease filter.
GB
(When washing the grease filter, wash the
support grate as well with warm soapy water).
Carry out the above steps in reverse order to
put the filters back after having washed them,
making sure the entire extraction surface is
covered.
Carbon filter - Fig. 4
(Recirculation mode only)
The carbon filter serves to eliminate odours
that form during the cooking process.
The carbon filter cannot be washed nor
regenerated.
The carbon filter should be replaced every 6
months under normal use.
To dismount the carbon filter:
1. Disconnect the hood from the electricity.
2. Remove the metal filters (or its support).
3. Remove exhausted carbon filter, push
release button C and pull carbon filter
downwards.
To fit the carbon filter:
1. Fit the carbon filter by sliding it OVER the
metal tabs D and hook it into housings E.
Put the metal filter or its support back into
place.
Cleaning
To clean the outside of the hood use a cloth
moistened with denatured alcohol or neutral
liquid detergents. Never use products
containing abrasive.
Wipe brushed stainless steel in the same
direction as the brushing to avoid scratching.
Clean the external surface of the cooker hood
almost once every 10 days.
Attention
Failure to observe the instructions for cleaning
the appliance and changing and cleaning the
filters may cause fires.
Therefore, we recommend observing these
instructions.
