MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING
Before carrying out any maintenance or cleaning isolate the cooker hood from the mains supply. The cooker hood must be kept clean, as a build up of grease or fat can be a fire hazard. The external surfaces of the hood should be cleaned regularly. Wipe the cooker hood frequently with warm soapy water using a mild detergent. Dry thoroughly after cleaning. Always wear protective gloves when cleaning the hood. Never use scouring pads or abrasive cleaners. Never use excessive amounts of water when cleaning particularly around the control panel.
Charcoal Filter
The charcoal filters absorb the odours from cooking. They will slowly become saturated and gradually less effective. The charcoal filters cannot be cleaned, we recommend they are replaced every 3-6 months or more often if the hood is used for more than 3 hours per day.
To Remove/Replace the Charcoal Filters
1. Remove the lower grille, supporting the grille with one hand and draw down on the two grey handles (located on each side of the grille). The charcoal filters are left and right handed and should be fitted one at a time. Insert one end of the filter into the slots in the fan housing then lower the other end until the tab engages the slot in the casing.
