, surface; the 

same may occur as for lit cigarettes; but all of that can be 
removed following the recommendations reported below. 

  HOW TO REMOVE PERSISTENT STAINS, 

SCRATCHES AND BURNING RINGS 

CRISTALPLANT

®

 is an homogeneous material in all its 

thickness and depth, thus it can restore its surface 
original beauty from aggressive agents, such as 
scratches, burning rings from cigarettes and persistent 
stains, simply by following these instructions: as for small 
damages, use an abrasive Scotch Brite© (3M trademark) 
sponge and a common abrasive detergent to restore the 
surface. Rub superficially the damaged part down. If the 
defect is still visible, rub again using very fine glass-
paper. 

 TO 

USE: 

Powder or cream detergents (like CIF©, VIM© or similar), 
containing micro-granules with abrasive action on the 
surface. Methylated spirits may be used only being wary 
of rinsing well the surface. 

NON TO USE: 

Solvent agents like acetone or trichloroethylene, as well 
as other aggressive chemical substances like strong 
acids (muriatic acid…) or bases (caustic soda…). 
Detergents for industrial use or others of unknown 
aggressive action: in this case a test on a spot not in view 
should be done before application. Very aggressive 
substance generally used to clear sink pipes. Solvents 
used in the painting industry. 

Maintenance of the parts in glass, steel, plastic and all 
materials other than CRISTALPLANT

®

For cleaning, use a cloth moistened with neutral liquid 
detergent. 
Avoid the use of abrasive products. 

DO NOT USE 

ALCOHOL! 
 
Warning: 

Failure to follow the rules of cleaning the unit and 

replacing the filters may cause fire. It is therefore 
recommended to follow these instructions. 
We accept no responsibility for any damage to the motor or 
fire damage linked to inappropriate maintenance or failure to 
comply with the above mentioned warnings. 

Grease filter 

Fig. 20-22 
Traps cooking grease particles. 

This must be cleaned at least once a month (or when the filter 
saturation indication system - envisaged on the model in 
possession - indicates this necessity), using non-aggressive 
detergents, in a dishwasher, which must be set to a low 
temperature and a short cycle (Tmax: 70°C). 
When washed in a dishwasher, metal parts may discolour 
slightly.  
The filter must be dried in an oven for one hour at a max 
temperature of 100°C; if the filter is still moist, repeat the 
operation. 
Replace the filter at least every 2 years. 

Charcoal filter (filter version only) 

Fig. 19 
It absorbs unpleasant odours caused by cooking. 

The charcoal filter can be washed once every two months 
using hot water and a suitable detergent, or in a dishwasher at 
65°C (if the dishwasher is used, select the full cycle function 
and leave dishes out). 
Eliminate excess water without damaging the filter, then put it 
in the oven for 10 minutes at 100° C to dry completely. 
Replace the mattress every 3 years and when the cloth is 
damaged. 

Replacing lamps 

Fig. 21 

Disconnect the appliance from the electricity. 
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.
