CLEANING AND

MAINTENANCE

Maintenance

Regular maintenance and cleaning of the appliance will ensure trou-

ble-free operation of the cooker hood and extend its life. Especially make

sure that the grease lter and activated charcoal lter are replaced ac-

cording to manufacturer's recommendations.

• Do not use a soaked cloth, sponge, or water jet.

• Do not use solvents or alcohol, as they may tarnish lacquered sur-

faces.

• Do not use caustic substances, especially for cleaning stainless steel.

• Do not use a rough or abrasive cloth.

• It is recommend to use a damp cloth and a neutral detergent.

Note: After several washes in the dishwasher, the colour of the alumini-

um lter may change. The change of colour does not indicate improprie-

ties or the necessity to change it.

Grease lter

For normal hood operation, aluminium grease lter should be cleaned

every month in the dishwasher or by hand using a mild detergent or

liquid soap.

Dismantling of aluminium grease lter is shown on Figure 5.

Acrylic lter is used in some models. This lter should be replaced at

least once every two months or more frequently if the appliance is used

intensively.

Activated charcoal lter

Charcoal lter is used only when the cooker hood is not connected to

the ventilation duct. Activated charcoal lter can absorb odours until

saturated. Charcoal lter is not suitable for washing or regeneration and

should be replaced at least once every two months or more frequently if

the appliance is used intensively.

Dismantling of charcoal lter is shown on Figure 6.

Light

Use incandescent / halogen / LED modules of the same specication as

those factory-installed in the appliance. See Figure 7 for details how to

replace lights. If there is no such gure in this manual, please contact

authorised service to replace the lighting module.
