MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING

L

Constant maintenance ensures the correct operation and efficiency of the ap-

pliance over time. Special attention should be paid to the metal grease-trap-

ping filters and the charcoal filters. Frequent cleaning of the filters and their 

supports will ensure that fats and grease do not accumulate on the range 

hood, with the consequent risk of fire.

1.  METAL GREASE-TRAPPING FILTERS

These trap the fat and grease particles suspended in the air, and therefore 

should be washed every month in hot water and detergent, without bend-

ing them. Wait until they are completely dry before repositioning them. 

To remove and replace these filters, see the instructions in point H1. This 

operation should be performed at regular intervals.

2.  CHARCOAL FILTERS

These trap the odours present in the stream of air that passes through 

them. The air is purified by passing a number of times through the filters 

and being recirculated into the kitchen. The charcoal filters cannot be 

cleaned, and should be replaced on average every 3-4 months (according 

to use). To replace the charcoal filters, see the instructions in point H2.

3. CLEANING THE OUTSIDE OF THE APPLIANCE

The ouside of the range hhod should be cleaned using a damp cloth and 

neutral liquid detergent or denatured alcohol. 

In case of fingerprint-less finish (fasteel) clean only with water and neutral 

soap using clean with a soft cloth, rinse and wipe dry thoroughly. Do not 

use products that contain abrasive substances, rough cloths or cloths spe-

cifically designed for cleaning steel. Using abrasive substances or rough 

cloths will inevitably damage the finish of steel. The steel surface will be 

irrevocably damaged if the instructions above are not complied with. Keep 

these instructions together with the instructions for use of your hood. 

The manufacturer accepts no liability for any damage caused by non-com-

pliance with the instructions above. 

4. CLEANING THE INSIDE OF THE APPLIANCE

The electrical parts or parts of the motor assembly inside the range hood 

must not be cleaned using liquids or solvents.

Do not use abrasive products.

All the above operations must be performed after having disconnected the 

appliance from the mains power supply.
