Replacing the charcoal filter
If using the hood in the filtering version, the charcoal
filter (P) will periodically have to be replaced.
First of all, remove the metal grease filters. Push the
catch towards the inside and remove the charcoal filter
from its seat.
Replace the charcoal filter with one of the same type
by carrying out the operations in reverse order.
Replace the charcoal filter on average every 6 months
depending on how heavily the hood is used.
Replacing the lamps
Pay particular ATTENTION when carrying out
this operation and remember to remove the voltage.
To replace the halogen lamps, open the cover
by prising in the slots. Replace with lamps
of the same type.
WARNING: Do not touch the new lamp with bare
hands.
! Always switch off the electricity supply before
carrying out any cleaning or servicing operations on
the appliance.
! To avoid possible risks of fire always comply with
the indicated instructions when cleaning grease
filters and when removing grease deposits from the
appliance.
Careful maintenance will assure good functioning and
good efficiency over time.
Cleaning the hood
Any fat deposits should be removed from the appliance
periodically depending on amount of use (at least every
2 months). Avoid using abrasive or corrosive products.
To clean painted appliances on the outside, use a cloth
dipped in lukewarm water and neutral detergent. To
clean steel, copper or brass appliances on the outside,
it is always best to use specific products, following the
instructions on the products themselves. To clean the
inside of the appliance, use a cloth (or brush) dipped in
denatured ethyl alcohol.
Cleaning the grease filters
To remove the grease filters, push the catch near the
handle towards the inside and pull the filter
downwards.
Wash the filters by hand or in the dishwasher using
a neutral detergent. If they are washed
in the dishwasher, any loss of colour will
not jeopardise functioning of the filters in any way.
Clean the grease filters every 2 months on average
depending on how heavily the hood is used.
