MAINTENANCE
Cleaning
Important!
For all maintenance, first switch off the mains power to the cooker hood
by pulling the plug out of the socket or by turning off the home's master
switch. The hood needs to be cleaned regularly, both inside as well as
outside (at least as often as the grease filter).
Do not use abrasive cleaning products. Do not use alcohol!
Important!
If the instructions regarding cleaning of the appliance or replacing the
filters are not followed, this can cause a fire. These instructions must
be followed! The manufacturer is not liable for damage to the hood
or fire damage resulting from incompetent maintenance or from
non-adherence to the safety instruction above.
Cooker hood
Clean the cooker hood with soapy water and a soft cloth.
Then rinse with clean water. Do not use aggressive cleaning agents
such as caustic soda. The cooker hood finish stays in good condition if
it is buffed periodically following the application of wax.
Stainless steel cooker hoods
Do not use scouring pads or other abrasive cleaners on stainless steel
cooker hoods. Finish with a non-abrasive, non-polishing agent and buff
the stainless steel in the direction of the grain.
Metal grease filters
Metal grease filters should be cleaned once a month (or when indicated
by the filter cleaning indicator – if present on the model) using a neutral
cleaning agent, either by hand or in the dishwasher on a short, low-
temperature program. Place the grease filters with the openings facing
downwards in the dishwasher so the water can drain out of the filter.
Aluminium grease filters become dull as a result of dishwasher cleaning
agents. This is normal and does not effect the working.
