MAINTENANCE

Before cleaning or carrying out maintenance operations, disconnect the equipment by removing the plug or switching off the 
main switch.

Regular maintenance guarantees proper operation and good performance over time. 

Special attention is to be paid to the metal anti-grease filters and active carbon filters. In fact, frequent cleaning of the filters and their supports 
ensures that no grease is accumulated on the hood, which is dangerous and can cause fires.

EXTERNAL CLEANING

You are advised to clean the external surfaces of the hood

 at least once every 15 days

 to prevent oily substances and grease from sticking to them.

To clean the brushed stainless steel hood, the Manufacturer recommends using "Magic Steel" wipes. Alternatively, it can be cleaned using a damp 
cloth, slightly moistened with neutral, liquid detergent or denatured alcohol. Finish off cleaning by rinsing well and drying with soft cloths.

Do not use too much water next to the push button control panel and lighting devices in order to prevent humidity from reach-
ing electronic parts.
You must not use detergents containing abrasive, acid or corrosive substances or abrasive cloths: a direct consequence of not 

complying with these warnings will result in irreversible deterioration of the hood's surface.

The Manufacturer declines all responsibility for failure to comply with these instructions.

CLEANING OF INTERNAL PARTS

It is forbidden to clean electrical parts, or parts related to the motor inside the hood, with liquids or solvents.

Do not use abrasive products.
All these operations are to be carried out after having disconnected the equipment from the electrical mains power supply.

METAL ANTI-GREASE FILTERS 

The metal anti-grease filters are there to contain suspended grease particles: deposited on the filters, these feed on any 

flames released when cooking, generate unpleasant odours, and compromise the passage of air, thus reducing suction 
performance of the hood. 
For this reason, it is advised to 

frequently

 wash the metal filters (

at least

once a month) 

leaving them to soak in boiling 

water and dish washing liquid for 1 hour, taking care not to bend them. Do not use corrosive, acid or alkaline detergents. 
Rinse them well and wait for them to be completely dry before reassembling them.
Washing in a dishwasher is permitted, however, it may cause the filter material to darken: to reduce the possibility of this 
problem from happening, use low-temperature washes (55°C max.).

Use the handle to take out the metal anti-grease filters (see instructions 

O

 on page 

10

). Carry out operations in reverse order to insert 

them.

ACTIVE CARBON FILTERS

Active carbon filters have the function of retaining odours in the air flow passing through them. The air, purified by running 
many times through the filter, is recirculated into the kitchen. 
Active carbon filters 

cannot be washed

 and are to be immediately replaced every 

3-4 months

 (depending on the fre-

quency of use of the hood).
Dispose of the active carbon filters in compliance with the regulations in force in the country of use.

To change active carbon filters, take out the metal anti-grease filters (see instructions 

O

 on page 

10

) and follow the instructions

DISPOSAL AFTER END OF USEFUL LIFE

The crossed-out wheeled bin symbol on the appliance means that 

the product is WEEE

, i.e. 

"

waste electrical and electronic equipment", according-

ly 

it must not be thrown out with unsorted waste

 (i.e. with "mixed household waste"), but it must be disposed of separately so that it can undergo 

specific operations for its re-use, or a specific treatment, to remove and safely dispose of any substances that may be harmful to the environment 
and remove the raw materials that can be recycled. Correct disposal of this product contributes to saving precious resources and avoiding potential 
negative effects on human health and the environment, which could be caused by inappropriate waste disposal. You are kindly asked to contact 
your local authorities for further information regarding the designated waste collection points nearest to you. Penalties for improper disposal of such 
waste can be applied in compliance with national regulations.
