Disconnect the rangehood from the power supply prior to cleaning the appliance, either by removing the
plug from the mains or removing the fuse.
Clean the filter regularly. The grease deposits in the filter and discharge tube are fire hazards where a
hotplate (or another heat source) is left on by error.
Maintenance and cleaning

Cleaning the rangehood
Clean the outside of the rangehood using a damp
cloth and a mild detergent.
Never use corrosive, abrasive or flammable
cleaning products.
Cleaning the grease filters
Clean the filter every month or every other month
according to how much the rangehood is used.
The cleaner the filters, the more grease they
collect. To remove the filters, Fig. 3:
First of all, push the stop on the metal grease
filter back, and then extract the filter by pulling
downward.
The filter is made of aluminium wires on which
the grease collects. Clean the filter in hot water
using a detergent, or in a dishwasher. Let the filter
dry before putting it back.
When washed in a dishwasher, the grease filter
may discolour slightly, but this does not affect is
filtering capacity.
Charcoal filter
The charcoal filter should only be used if you
want to use the rangehood in the recirculation
function.
To do this you will need an original charcoal
filter.
This filter cannot be cleaned or reused.
As a general rule, the activated charcoal
filter should be changed once every four
months.
Fitting Fig. 4
Fit one charcoal filter on the left and one on the
right so to cover the plastic grids that protect
the fan wheel, check that the pins R on the
conveyor match with housing S on the charcoal
filter, then turn clockwise to fix it.
To remove proceed in the reverse order.
Always specify the rangehood model code
number and serial number when ordering
replacement filters. This information is shown
on the registration plate located on the inside of
the unit.
The charcoal filter can be ordered from
your local Kleenmaid Store or by
phoning 13 13 08.
