Cleaning and Care

Before any cleaning or maintenance

work the cooker hood must be dis-

connected from the mains supply

– switching it off at the wall socket

and removing the plug (do not pull

on the cable, only on the plug), or

– the mains fuse is withdrawn, or

– the screw-out fuse is removed, (in

countries where this is applicable).

Housing

The cooker hood housing may be

cleaned using hot water to which a little

mild detergent has been added. Dry

with a soft cloth.

Never use a cleaner which scours

or contains chlorine, acids or soda.

These would damage the surface of

the cooker hood.

A mild, non-abrasive proprietary stain-

less steel cleaner is suitable.

Grease filters

Re-usable metal grease filters are fitted

which remove solid particles (oil, dust,

etc.) from the kitchen vapours, prevent-

ing soiling of the cooker hood.

The grease filters should be cleaned

regularly, but always clean immediately

the grease filter touch control lamp

comes on.

An over-greasy filter is a fire hazard.

Some washing-up liquids or dish-

washer detergents may cause the

metal filter to discolour. This discol-

ouration will in no way affect the

function or fitness for use.

To remove a grease filter press the

hand hold catch towards the middle

of the filter.

Remove the filter.

Clean the filters

– by hand: with a scrubbing brush in

hot water with detergent.

– in a dishwasher: place the filters

with the short side upright in the

lower basket, ensuring the spray

arm is not obstructed.

After cleaning leave the filters to dry

for a while on an absorbent surface

before putting them back in place.
