Safety precautions
- 5 -
• We recommend that the cooker hood is switched on
before any food is cooked. We also recommend that
the appliance is left running for 15 minutes after the
food is cooked, in order to thoroughly eliminate all
contaminated air.
The effective performance of the cooker hood de-
pends on constant maintenance; the anti-grease filter
and the active carbon filter both require special atten-
tion.
• The anti-grease filter is used to trap any grease parti-
cles suspended in the air, therefore is subject to satu-
ration (the time it takes for the filter to become satu-
rated depends on the way in which the appliance is
used).
- To prevent potential re hazards, the anti-grease lters
should be washed a minimum of every 2 months (it is
possible to use the dishwasher for this task).
- After a few washes, the colour of the lters may change.
This does not mean they have to be replaced.
If the replacement and washing instructions are not fol-
lowed, the anti-grease lters may present a re hazard.
• The acrylic filter, which is found resting on the grille,
should be replaced when the text, visible through the
grille, changes colour and the ink spreads; the new fil-
ter should be fitted in such a way that the text can be
seen through the grille from outside the cooker hood.
• If the filters do not have any text on them, or if metal
filters or aluminium panel filters are used, they should
be washed every 2 months in order to prevent the risk
of fire.
To wash the filters, proceed as follows:
- Remove the filter from the grille and wash it using a
solution of water and neutral liquid detergent, leaving
the dirt to soften.
- Rinse thoroughly with warm water and leave to dry.
• The active carbon filters are used to purify the air
which is released back into the room. The filters are
not washable or re-usable and must be replaced at
least once every four months. The active carbon filter
saturation level depends on the frequency with which
the appliance is used, the type of cooking performed
and the regularity with which the anti-grease filters
are cleaned.
• Remove build-up from the fan and other surfaces
of the cooker hood regularly using a cloth moistened
with denatured alcohol or non-abrasive neutral liquid
detergent.
CAUTION!
Wear gloves during the installation of the product oth-
erwise injury at ngers could happen by sharp edges.
