Cleaning and maintenance
During cleaning and maintenance work, make
sure the safety instructions are complied with.
Cleaning the hood body
• If your kitchen hood is made of stainless steel,
use proprietary cleaners mentioned in the product
instructions.
• If your kitchen hood is painted, use lukewarm water
and a neutral soap.
• Never use metallic scourers, nor abrasive or corrosive
products.
• Dry the kitchen hood using a cloth that does not
produce fibres.
• Do not use vapour cleaners.
Proceed with the following checks before calling the Technical Service:
Problem
The kitchen hood does not
work.
The kitchen hood does not
extract sufficiently or vibrates.
The lamps do not light up.
When exterior gas extraction is not possible, then the kitchen hood may be set to purify the air by recycling it through
active charcoal filters.
The active charcoal filters have an active life of between three to six months, depending on the individual conditions
of use. These filters cannot be washed nor regenerated. They must be replaced once their useful life comes to an end.
The manufacturer reserves the right to make changes and corrections to its products as it deems necessary,
without altering their basic characteristics.
Problem solving
Possible cause
The mains cable is not connected to
the network.
There is no current in the network.
Filters are saturated with fat.
Obstruction in the air outlet.
The lamps are blown
The lamps are slack.
Active charcoal filters (Optional)
Cleaning the metal filters
To remove the filters from their fittings, press lightly on the
locks and then pull them off.
The metal filters can be cleaned by soaking them in hot
water with neutral detergent until the fat dissolves and then
rinsing them under the tap or using special anti-grease
products. They can also be washed in a dishwasher. In this
case, it is advisable to stack them vertically to avoid food
residues to stick to them.
Cleaning in a dishwasher may damage the metallic surface
(blackening it), although this will not affect its fat retention
capacity.
Once clean, leave them to dry off and then fit them onto
the kitchen hood.
Changing light bulbs
Proceed as follows:
• Unscrew the lamp cover.
• Change the broken / burnt out lamp.
• Screw the lamp cover back in.
Solution
Connect the mains cable to the network.
Provide current to the network.
Change or clean the active
charcoal and/or metal filters.
Remove the obstruction.
Change the lamps.
Tighten the lamps.
