• We recommend that the cooker hood is switched on before any food is cooked. We also
recommend that the appliance is left running for 15 minutes after the food is cooked, in order to
thoroughlyeliminate all contaminated air. The effective performance of the cookerhood depends on
constantmaintenance; the anti-grease filter and the active carbon filter both require special attention.
• The anti-grease filter is responsible retaining the grease particles suspended in theair, therefore
it is subject to clogging with variable frequency according to the use of theappliance.
- To prevent the danger of possible fires, at least every 2 months one must wash the anti-grease
filters by hand using non-abrasive neutral liquid detergents or in the dishwasher at low temperatures
and on short cycles.
- After a few washes, colour alterations may occur. This does not give the right to claim their
replacement.
• The active carbon filters are used to purify the air that is sent back into the room and its functionis
to mitigate the unpleasant odours produced by cooking.
- The non-regenerable active carbon filters must be replaced at least every 4 months.The
saturation of the active charcoal depends on the more or less prolonged use of theappliance, on
the type of kitchen and on the frequency with which anti-grease filter iscleaned.
- Regenerable active charcoal filters must be washed by hand, with non abrasive neutraldetergents,
or in the dishwasher at a maximum temperature of 65°C (the washing cycle must be complete
without dishware). Remove excess water without damaging thefilter, remove the plastic parts,
and let the mat dry in the oven for at least 15 minutes approximately at a maximum temperature
of 100°C. To keep the regenerable charcoal filter functioning efficient this operation must be
repeated every 2 months. These must be replaced at least every 3 years or when the mat is
damaged.
• Before remounting the anti-grease filters and the regenerable active charcoal filters it
isimportant that they are completely dry.
• Clean the hood frequently, both internally and externally, using a cloth dampened with
denatured alcohol or neutral liquid detergents that are non abrasive.
• The lighting .system is designed for use during cooking and not for the prolonged general lighting of
the room. The prolonged use of the lighting system significantly decreases the average duration of
the bulbs.
• If the appliance is equipped with courtesy lights it is possible to use them for general room
lighting for a prolonged amount of time.
• Attention: the non compliance with the hood cleaning warnings and with the replacement and cleaning
of the filters entails risk of fires. One therefore recommends keeping to the suggested
instructions.
