NOT WOR ING PROPERLY?
Light bulb doesn’t come on?
A replacement bulb is probably necessary, but first
check that the bulb is firmly fitted. If the filament is
broken, remember, remember that the light bulbs
are not covered by our guarantee. Remember to
disconnect the power supply before removing the
bulb.
Motor is on but fan doesn’t seem to be as efficient
as usual?
Check the grease filter mat. If it hasn’t been
cleaned recently, it might be clogged with grease.
If the filter mat is relatively clean, check the
charcoal filter. If this hasn’t been replaced for more
than six months, remove it and insert a new one.
Works normally but cooking smells linger?
If you’re using the unit in re-circulation mode,
change the charcoal filter. It is obviously past it’s
prime.
Control fails to switch motor on?
Check the plug, socket and fuse. If these are in
order and the fault persists, it could be that an
accumulation of grease has impaired the efficiency
of the switch mechanism. Try rapidly moving the
switch on and off several times in succession to
clear grease deposits. If the fault continues, call
the service agent.
Appliance does not work at all?
Check your extractor is switched on at the mains.
Next, check for an unexpected power failure by
switching on adjacent lights etc.
Still not working? Call the service agent on
