Maintenance Prior to any maintenance operation ensure that the cooker hood is disconnected from the power supply. Cleaning The cooker hood should be cleaned regularly internally and externally. Clean using the cloth dampened with neutral liquid detergent. Do not use abrasive products. DO NOT USE ALCOHOL! Warning: Failure to carry out the basic standards of the cleaning of the cooker hood and replacement of the filters may cause fire risks. Therefore we recommend observing these instructions. Grease filter Fig. 2 This must be cleaned once a month (or when the filter saturation indication system – if envisaged on the model in possession – indicates this necessity) using non aggressive detergents, either by hand or in the dishwasher, which must be set to a low temperature and a short cycle. When washed in a dishwasher, the grease filter may discolour slightly, but this does not affect its filtering capacity. To remove the grease filter B, pull the spring release handle. Charcoal filter (filter version only) Fig. 3 It absorbs unpleasant odours caused by cooking. The saturation of the activated charcoal occurs after more or less prolonged use, depending on the type of cooking and the regularity of cleaning of the grease filter. In any case it is necessary to replace the cartridge at least every four mounths. To fit the carbon filter : 1. Disconnect the hood from the electricity. 2. Remove the metal filters. 3. Fit the carbon filter and fix it to the body of the hood with two supplied screws 4. Put the metal filter back into place. To replace the carbon filter : 1. Disconnect the hood from the electricity. 2. Remove the metal filters. 3. Remove the old carbon filter and replace it. 4. Put the metal filter back into place. Replacing lamps Fig. 4 Disconnect the hood from the electricity. Warning! Prior to touching the light bulbs ensure they are cooled down. 1. Unscrew the lamp cover. 2. Replace the damaged light bulb. Only use halogen bulbs of 20W max (G4), making sure you do not touch them with your hands. 3. Refit the lamp cover. If the lights do not work, make sure that the lamps are fitted properly into their housings before you call for technical assistance. Caution Never use the hood without the grill mounted! This appliance is designed to be operated by adults. Children should not be allowed to tamper with the controls or play with the appliance . The premises must have sufficient ventilation when the kitchen hood is used at the same time as other apparatuses that use gas and other fuels. The sucked air must not be conveyed in a conduit used for discharging fumes produced by apparatuses fuelled by gas or other fuels. Cooking food on the flame under the hood is severely prohibited. The use of open flame damages the filters and can cause a fire; it must therefore be avoided in any case. Frying must be carried out under control in order to prevent overheated oil catching fire. Keep strictly to the regulations envisaged by the competent local authority as far as the technical and safety measures to adopt for discharging fumes are concerned. The hood is to be cleaned frequently both internally and externally. Failure to observe the regulations about cleaning the hood and substituting and cleaning the filters can lead to the risk of fire. Any responsibility is declined for possible inconveniences, damage or fire caused to the apparatus deriving from failure to observe the instructions shown in this manual.
