Care and Maintenance
IMPORTANT : DO NOT PERFORM MAINTENANCE OR CLEANING
OF THE EXTRACTOR WITHOUT FIRST SWITCHING OFF THE
ELECTRICITY SUPPLY.
Cleaning
You should use a nonabrasive cleaner. Any abrasive cleaner (including
Cif) will scratch the surface and could erase the control panel markings.
You can clean your extractor eectively by simply using a dilute
solution of water and mild detergent and drying to a shine with a clean
cloth.
Cleaning the grease filter
The grease filter should be kept clean to minimise the risk of fire.
At least once a month you should remove and clean the grease
filter with hot soapy water. You can also wash the grease filter in a
dishwasher, ensuring that you place it in an upright position to prevent
damage from other items in the dishwasher. After rinsing and drying,
replace the filter.
To remove the grease filter, push in the button on the handle and then
pull down on the filter at the front. When you have released it at the
front, then you can pull out the filter. To replace the grease filter, repeat
the steps in reverse.
Please note:
Cleaning the grease filter in the dishwasher may lead to discolouration.
This is normal and does not constitute a fault with the appliance.
Changing the charcoal filter (re-circulating only)
To ensure best performance of your extractor, you should replace the
charcoal filter every four to six months, depending on use.
To attach a new charcoal filter, first remove the grease filters as
described above.
Insert the charcoal filter into the guide on the side of the motor, then
slide the filter in until it locks into place. Repeat with the second filter
on the opposite side. Finally replace the grease filters.
