CLEANING AND CARE
Prior to any maintenance or cleaning work, isolate the hood from the electrical
supply by: pulling out the appliance connector plug or tripping the house
installation circuit breaker or fully unscrew the screw type fuse from the house
installation.
•
The extractor hood is not to be cleaned with a steam cleaner.
•
Do not use cleaning agents containing alcohol to clean appliances with a matt
black finish. These can lead to discolouring.
•
Non-compliance with the maintenance and cleaning instructions can result in
a fire hazard due to grease deposits.
•
The grease filters on your appliance are to be cleaned or replaced at regular
intervals.
•
Filters saturated with grease can quickly catch fire and also distribute
unpleasant odours.
•
Grease filters obstructed by dirt particles seriously impair the appliance
function.
•
When cleaning the area of the control elements, take great care to prevent
water entering the electronics.
Special information for appliances with a stainless steel casing
•
A commercially available non-abrasive stainless steel cleaning agent should be
used for cleaning stainless steel surfaces.
•
Treatment with a stainless steel preservative is recommended to prevent
surfaces becoming quickly re-soiled.
•
Apply the agent all over and economically using a soft cloth.
•
Never use stainless steel cleaning agents in the vicinity of the control
elements.
•
When cleaning metal grease filters take care not to damage the mesh.
•
Frequent cleaning or the use of aggressive cleaning agents can cause colour
changes to the metal surface.
•
These do not affect the filter function and are not grounds for complaint.
Changing the grease filter
•
Change paper grease filters monthly.
•
Change paper grease filters with alarm every two months or when the colour
of the surface becomes visible through the mesh openings. This filter is
coloured on one side; after fitting, this colouring must not be visible through
the mesh openings.
•
Foam grease filters must be soaked once a month in warm soapy water for
1 to 2 hours. Do not wring out; repeat where required and replace the filter by
a new item after a maximum of 5-6 washes.
