Cleaning

You should use a nonabrasive cleaner. Any abrasive cleaner (including
Cif) will scratch the surface and could erase the control panel
markings.

You can clean your extractor eectively by simply using a dilute
solution of water and mild detergent and drying to a shine with a
clean cloth.

Cleaning the grease filters

The grease filters should be kept clean to minimise the risk of fire.

After 100 hours of use, “FF” will show on the display when the
extractor is switched o. This indicates that you should remove and
clean the grease filters with hot soapy water. You can also wash
the grease filters in a dishwasher, ensuring that you place them
in an upright position to prevent damage from other items in the
dishwasher. After rinsing and drying, replace the filters.

on either side. They will remain
located in their hinges.

2. Pull open the handle on each grease

filter as shown in fig. 3. It will release
at the handle side. Then lower the
grease filter to remove it completely.

To replace the grease filters, repeat the
above steps in reverse.

Please note:

Cleaning the grease filters in the
dishwasher may lead to discolouration.
This is normal and does not constitute a
fault with the appliance.
