Clean the outside of the hood using a damp cloth and a solution of water and mild washing up liquid. Only ever clean the switch panel and filter grill using a damp cloth and mild washing up liquid. It is extremely important to clean the unit and change the filters at the recommended intervals. Failure to do so will cause grease deposits to build up that could constitute a fire hazard. The purpose of the grease filters is to absorb grease particles which form during cooking and it must always be used, either in the external extraction or internal re-circulation function. Attention: the metal grease filters must be removed and washed, either by hand or in the dishwasher, every four weeks. First, push the metal grease filter stop backwards, then extract the filter, pulling downwards. Hand washing Soak grease filters for about one hour in hot water with a greaseloosening cleaner, then rinse off thoroughly with hot water. Select most powerful washing programme and highest temperature, at least 65°C. When washing the metal grease filter in the dishwasher a slight discolouration of the filter can occur, this does not have any impact on its performance. The charcoal filter should only be used if you want to use the hood in the recirculation function. To do this you will need an original charcoal filter (available from your local Service Force Centre). Replacing the charcoal filter The charcoal filter cannot be washed nor regenerated.
