USING THE HOOD
CARE AND MAINTENANCE
TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE
Hood does not work:
• Is the power plug properly inserted in the mains
socket?
• Is there a power failure?
• Is the mains fuse OK?
Insufficient suction power:
• Is the right extraction speed selected?
• Do the filters need to be cleaned or replaced?
• Are the air outlets blocked?
Light does not work:
• Does the bulb need to be replaced?
• Is the bulb correctly fitted?
• Is the mains fuse OK?
Never try to carry out any repair by yourself other
than fixing the above-mentioned problems.
Switch on the hood a few minutes before starting to cook and leave it running for at least 5 minutes after you have
finished.
1. Pull out the steam drawer (depending on model). This improves hood performance.
2. Turn the speed selector to the required speed setting according to the quantity of fumes and steam to be
extracted.
3. Switch off the hood 5 minutes after you have finished cooking.
4. Close the steam-collecting drawer (where fitted).
Always disconnect the hood before cleaning or carrying out maintenance by unplugging it or switching
off the power supply.
Grease filter
• The sponge grease filter should be washed in hot soapy water once a month
(soak for 1-2 hours, do not wring, leave to dry and then remount. If necessary, repeat the process. Replace with
a new filter every 5-6 washes).
• The grease filter paper should be replaced at least once a month.
• Grease filter paper with saturation indicator should be replaced at least every two months or whenever the
colour becomes visible through the holes of the grille.
The paper filter is coloured on one side. This colour should not be visible through the grille holes when the filter
is installed.
• Metal grease filters should be washed once a month either by hand or in a dishwasher at a low temperature and
in a short cycle. Leave filter to dry before remounting it. Washing in a dishwasher can cause grease filters to turn
white, but this in no way affects efficiency.
Whenever cleaning or replacing the grease filters, clean all other exposed parts of the hood.
Carbon filter
(“Air recirculation mode”, see following page)
The carbon filter cannot be washed or regenerated. In some cases, carbon filters can be washed, but only when
specified in the attached Product Description Sheet.
Replace the carbon filter (normal usage)
every 6 months (Rectangular carbon filter)
every 4 months (Circular carbon filter).
Replacing bulbs
1. When replacing the bulb, be sure it is cool before touching it and check the wattage.
2. Pull out the steam-collecting drawer (depending on model).
3. Open the grille or light fixture and remove the grease filter.
4. Remove the burnt-out bulb and replace it with a new one of the same wattage. Close the grille, light fixture or
metal grease filter.
Cleaning the hood
Use a soft cloth with methylated spirits or a mild liquid detergent. Never use abrasive substances. never clean the
appliance with high pressure water or steam cleaning equipment.
Warning! Failure to observe the instructions for cleaning the appliance and replacing or washing the filters may cause
a fire.
