First switch the electricity off.
SLK680/980
Pull out the visor (C). Press the handle (D)
slightly. Remove the cover (B) by turning it
counterclockwise. Pull the bulb out of the
holder, then fit the new bulb. Take care not
to touch the bulb with your hands when you
replace it, since direct contact with the skin
can result in the bulb burning out.

The filter panel can be taken apart in
2 pieces. Be careful not to damage the
fixing guide (E).
Cleaning
Cooker hood
Clean the cooker hood with soapy water, then wipe with clean water to
rinse. Do not use aggressive cleaning agents such as soda. The cooker hood
paintwork will stay looking nice if you wax it occasionally.
Filters
Wash aluminium filters, every 2 weeks in soapy water. The cleaning agents
■
will make the aluminium filter turn dull, this is normal. Because of the risk of
discolouring and wear and tear, we do not recommend using a dishwasher.
Some models are fitted with fibre filters. These can only be washed once or
■
twice and must therefore be replaced regularly.
The carbon filters cannot be cleaned to use again.
