CARE AND CLEANING
This range hood should be cleaned regularly using a mild, liquid detergent and a clean soft
cloth to avoid a build-up of grease occurring. Avoid the use of corrosive chemicals, abrasive
cleaning products, hard brushes and steel wool pads. Grease deposits are corrosive which
can cause damage.
In areas of high humidity or coastal environments, cleaning should be carried out more
frequently. Disconnect the product from the power source before undergoing any cleaning.
Do not operate the hood without filters in place.
Aluminum filters
z
Clean the filters at least once a month. Filters may need to be cleaned more frequently
depending on the cooking methods used and frequency of use.
z
Aluminum filters should be removed and cleaned with hot soapy water or in
a dishwasher.
z
If washed in a dishwasher, the filter should be placed in an upright position to prevent
food from falling on them.
z
After rinsing and drying, refit the filters.
Carbon filters – for use in recirculation mode
Active carbon filters are disposable items designed to remove grease and odors from
cooking vapors before the air is channeled back into the kitchen. The active carbon filters
must be replaced periodically to work properly, at least once every six months, depending
on the frequency with which the ventilation hood is used.
Fully saturated carbon filters can become a barrier to air movement therefore limiting
ventilation hood performance. In the event of fire, grease laden filters could be flammable
and therefore regular replacement is recommended.
