Before cleaning or maintenance,
switch off the electricity supply.
To avoid any fire risk, the following
cleaning instructions must be followed:
Grease filters
The grease filters absorb grease and
dust from cooking fumes, which would
otherwise damage the inside of the hood.
The grease filters should be removed
and cleaned regularly - with normal
use, this should be every 2 months.
To clean use warm soapy water, or
wash in a dishwasher. The grease fil-
ters may slightly change coloyr foll-
wing washing, however this does not
affect their performance.
I m p o r t a n t : Frequent washing is
essential to prevent a build up of
grease in the filters which could
become a fire hazard.
1. Remove the filters from the hood.
2. Carefully wash the grease filters in
hot soapy water and dry with a
clean towel.
3. Refit the clean filters.
Carbon filters (models installed for
use with the re-circulation method only)
The carbon filters absorb cooking
odours and need renewing after about
4 months of normal use. Replacement
carbon filters can be obtained from
your supplier.
Saturation of the activated charcoal in
the filter will depend on how often the
hood is used, the type of kitchen and
the regularity of cleaning the grease filter.
The carbon filters cannot be
washed - renew every 4 months.
1. Remove the grease filter assembly
from the hood.
2. Release the old carbon filter by
twisting it in either direction by a
quarter turn (90˚) until it disengages.
3. Fit the new carbon filter by
engaging it onto the peg in the
centre of the fan grille and twisting
by a quarter turn until it is gripped
securely.
4. Refit the grease filter assembly.
Please note: Carbon filters are
round in shape.
