Operation 

The hood is fitted with a control panel with aspiration speed 
selection control and a light switch to control cooking area 
lights. 
Use the high suction speed in cases of concentrated kitchen 
vapours.  It is recommended that the cooker hood suction is 
switched on for 5 minutes prior to cooking and to leave in 
operation during cooking and for another 15 minutes 
approximately after terminating cooking.  

Maintenance 

ATTENTION! 

Before performing any maintenance operation, 

isolate the hood from the electrical supply by switching off at 
the connector and removing the connector fuse.  
Or if the appliance has been connected through a plug and 
socket, then the plug must be removed from the socket. 

Cleaning 

The cooker hood should be cleaned regularly (at least with the 
same frequency with which you carry out maintenance of the 
fat filters) internally and externally.  Clean using the cloth 
dampened with neutral liquid detergent. Do not use abrasive 
products. 

DO NOT USE ALCOHOL!

WARNING: 

Failure to carry out the basic cleaning 

recommendations of the cooker hood and replacement of the 
filters may cause fire risks.  
Therefore, we recommend oserving these instructions. 
The manufacturer declines all responsibility for any damage to 
the motor or any fire damage linked to inappropriate 
maintenance or failure to observe the above safety 
recommendations. 

Grease filter 

Traps cooking grease particles. 

The grease filter

 must be cleaned once a month using non 

aggressive detergents, either by hand or in the dishwasher, 
which must be set to a low temperature and a short cycle.  
When washed in a dishwasher, the grease filter may discolour 
slightly, but this does not affect its filtering capacity. 

To remove the grease filter, pull the spring release handle.

Charcoal filter (filter version only) 

It absorbs unpleasant odours caused by cooking. 

The saturation of the charcoal filter occurs after more or less 
prolonged use, depending on the type of cooking and the 
regularity of cleaning of the grease filter. 
In any case it is necessary to replace the cartridge at least 
every four mounths. 
The charcoal filter may NOT be washed or regenerated.
