instructions.
• FILTERING VERSION
Install the hood and the two flues as described in the paragraph for
installation of the hood in ducting version. To assemble the filtering flue
refers to the instructions contained in the kit. If the kit is not provided, please
order it from your dealer. The charcoal filters must be fitted in the ducting
unit located inside the hood.
USE AND MAINTENANCE
• It is recommended to operate the appliance prior to cooking.
It is recommended to leave the appliance in operation for
15 minutes after cooking is terminated in order to completely eliminate
cooking vapors and odours.
The proper function of the cooker hood is conditioned by the regularity of
the maintenance operations, in particular, the active carbon filter.
• The anti-grease filters capture the grease particles suspended in the air, and
are therefore subject to clogging according to the frequency of the use of the
appliance.
In order to prevent fire hazard, it is recommendable to clean the filter at a
maximum of 2 months by carrying out the following instructions:
- Remove the filters from the cooker hood and wash them in a solution of
water and neutral liquid detergent, leaving to soak.
- Rinse thoroughly with warm water and leave to dry.
- The filters may also be washed in the dishwasher.
Please take note that the aluminum panels may alter in color after several
washes.
• The active carbon filters purify the air that is replaced in the environment.
The filters are not washable or reuseable and must be replaced at maximum
every four months. The saturation of the active carbon filter depends on the
frequency of use of the appliance, also by the type of cooking and the
regularity of cleaning on the anti-grease filters. (Fig 6) To remove the
charcoal filters place our hand on one filter at a time and turn it toward the
front part. The charcoal filter can now be removed. Always ensure to replace
both filters at the same time.
