Cleaning and care
Before any cleaning or maintenance
work the cooker hood must be dis-
connected from the mains supply.
Ensure that:
- it is switched off at the fused spur
connection or
- it is switched off at the wall socket
and the plug has been withdrawn
(do not pull on the cable, only on
the plug), or
- the mains fuse is withdrawn.
Ensure current is not supplied to the
appliance while maintenance or re-
pair work is being carried out.
Housing
The surfaces can be cleaned using hot
water to which a little mild washing-up
liquid has been added. Dry with a soft
cloth.
Never use cleaners which scour or
contain chlorine, acids or soda.
These would damage the surface of
the cooker hood.
For stainless steel surfaces a mild non-
abrasive proprietary stainless steel
cleaner is suitable.
Grease filters
Re-usable metal filters are fitted which
remove solid particles (oil, dust, etc.)
from the kitchen vapours, preventing
soiling of the cooker hood.
The cooker hood has a primary filter
which is visible on the underside of the
appliance. A secondary filter is situ-
ated above it in the appliance.
The filters should be cleaned regularly
(at least every 3-4 weeks) to avoid a
build-up of fat.
Important! Always clean both filters.
An over saturated filter is a fire
hazard.
