Maintenance
ATTENTION! Before performing any
maintenance operation, isolate the hood from the
electrical supply by switching off at the
connector and removing the connector fuse.
Or if the appliance has been connected through a
plug and socket, then the plug must be removed
from the socket.
Cleaning
The cooker hood should be cleaned regularly (at
least with the same frequency with which you carry
out maintenance of the fat filters) 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 cleaning
recommendations of the cooker hood and
replacement of the filters may cause fire risks.
Therefore, we recommend observing these
instructions.
The manufacturer declines all responsibility for any
damage to the motor or any fire damage linked to
inappropriate maintenance or failure to observe the
above safety recommendations.
Steam screen
The steam screen must always be left closed and
opened only for maintenance (e.g. cleaning or
changing filters).
Grease filter (Fig. 8-24)
Traps cooking grease particles.
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.
Open the steam screen.
To remove the grease filter, pull the spring release
handle.
Charcoal filter (filter version only) Fig. 23
It absorbs unpleasant odours caused by cooking.
The charcoal filter can be washed once every two
months using hot water and a suitable detergent, or
in a dishwasher at 65°C (if the dishwasher is used,
select the full cycle function and leave dishes out).
Eliminate excess water without damaging the filter,
then put it in the oven for 10 minutes at 100° C to
dry completely.
Replace the mattress every 3 years and when the
cloth is damaged.

Montage
Open the steam screen and remove the grease
filter.
Install the carbon filter on the back of the grease
filter and fix with two rods.
Attention! The rods are included in the carbon
filter packing and not on the hood.
•
To dismantle the filter act in the reverse manner.
Replacing lamps
The hood is equipped with a lighting system based
on LED technology.
The LEDs guarantee an optimum lighting, a
duration up to 10 times as long as the traditional
lamps and allow to save 90% electrical energy.
For replacement, contact the technical service.
