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 

ONLY

 the 

cloth dampened with neutral liquid detergent. 

DO NOT 

CLEAN WITH TOOLS OR INSTRUMENTS

. 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 observing 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 

Fig. 9-16 
Traps cooking grease particles. 

This must be cleaned once a month (or when the filter 
saturation indication system – if envisaged on the model in 
possession – indicates this necessity)  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) 

Fig. 15 
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 (or when the filter saturation indication 
system – if envisaged on the model in possession – indicates 
this necessity).The charcoal filter may NOT be washed or 
regenerated. 

Circular carbon filter 

Apply one on each side as cover to both the shield grids of the 
motor impeller, then turn clockwise. 
For the disassembly, turn counter-clockwise. 

Replacing lamps 

Fig. 19 

The hood is equipped with a lighting system based on LED 
technology. 
The LEDs guarantee an optimum lighting, a duration up to 10 
times as long as the traditional lamps and allow to save 90% 
electrical energy. 
 
To purchase spare LEDs, contact the technical assistance 
service.
