Maintenance and cleaning

Regular maintenance and cleaning ensure good reliability, performance and extended
working life. Special attention should be taken to keep the grease filter clean at all times.
The grease filter retains the solid grease particles. It is fitted onto the reverse side of the
lower grille panel and can be supplied in different materials. Maintenance of the grease
filter varies according to the type of material used.

Synthetic fibre grease filter

(8/10 mm thick)
It should be washed once a month in hot water and mild detergent and should be squeezed
dry, not wrung out. It should be replaced every six months.

Synthetic grease filter

(1 mm thick) (thin filter)
This filter cannot be washed nor regenerated and should be replaced every three months.

Combined grease filter

(thin synthetic filter and metal filter)
The  synthetic  filter  cannot  be  washed  nor
regenerated  and  should  be  replaced  every
three  months.  The  metal  filter  should  be
washed once a month in hot water and mild
detergent and left to drain dry. It should not
be  bent.  It  is  recommended  to  ensure
effective  operation  of  the  product  that  the
grease  filters  are  cleaned  and  replaced  as
directed. Care must be taken to avoid a heavy
accumulation  of  grease  as  it  could  be  a
possible fire hazard. To remove the grease
filter first remove the grille and then remove
the filter from the grille by pushing the spring
wire clips to one side (see drawing n. 5).

Charcoal filter

It is used only when the cookerhood is in the
recycling mode. The charcoal filter absorbs
smells and odours when the air passes
through it. It cannot be cleaned and should
be replaced every three months. To replace
the charcoal filter, open the grille panel and
unscrew the knurled screw in the centre of
the charcoal filter (see drawing n. 6).

Worktop illumination

To replace the light bulbs open the grille panel and change the lamp using an identical
replacement to ensure a safe working of the hood.

IMPORTANT
The electric plant is provided with earthing in compliance with international safety
regulations. For safety, when installed the hood must be posi-tioned at least 65 cm above
the hotplate. Never leave fryng pans unattended during use as overheated fats and oils
may catch fire. Never do flambé cooking under a hood. The cookerhood ducting must
never be connected to central heating flues, radiators or water heaters, etc.
