MAINTENANCE
Cleaning
EN 12
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 in the same frequency as the grease filter cleaning).
Do not use abrasive cleaning products. Do not use alcohol!
Important!
If the instructions regarding cleaning the appliance or replacing the
filters are not followed, this can cause a fire. These instructions should
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 above safety instructions.
Cooker hood
Clean the cooker hood with soapy water and a soft cloth. Then wash
off 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 saturation indication system, if present on your model),
using a neutral cleaning agent, preferably 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. Aluminum-colored and black grease filters become dull
as a result of dishwasher cleaning agents. This is normal and does not
effect the working.
