MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING electrolux 7

MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING

Before carrying out any maintenance
or cleaning isolate the cooker hood
from the mains supply.	EN
The cooker hood must be kept clean,
as a build up of grease or fat can be
a fire hazard.
The external surfaces of the hood
should be cleaned regularly. Wipe the
cooker hood frequently with warm
soapy water using a mild detergent. Dry
thoroughly after cleaning.
Always wear protective gloves when
cleaning the hood.
Never use scouring pads or abrasive
cleaners.
Never use excessive amounts of wa-
ter when cleaning particularly around
the control panel.
Charcoal Filter
The charcoal filters absorb the odours
from cooking. They will slowly become
saturated and gradually less effective.
The charcoal filters cannot be cleaned,
we recommend they are replaced every
3-6 months or more often if the hood is
used for more than 3 hours per day.

To Remove/Replace the

Charcoal Filters

1.Remove the lower grille, supporting the grille with one hand and draw down on the two grey handles (located on each side of the grille).

2.The charcoal filters are left and right handed and should be fitted one at a time.

3.Insert one end of the filter into the slots in the fan housing then lower the other end until the tab engages the slot in the casing.
