3.2. METAL ANTI-GREASE FILTERS (Fig. 4
The metal anti-grease filters capture the grease
particles of the vapours that develop during cooking,
therefore they are 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 every 2 months by carrying out the fol-
lowing 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 a dishwasher. The
aluminium panels may alter in colour after several
washes. This is not cause for customer complaint nor
replacement of panels.
3.3. ACTIVATED CARBON FILTERS (Fig. 4
only for re-circulating version (sold separately)
The activated carbon filters purify the kitchen
vapours, the air is then conveyed back into the kitchen.
The saturation of the active carbon filter depends on
the frequency of use of the appliance, by the type of
cooking and the regularity of cleaning the anti-grease
filters.
The filters are not washable nor re-useable and must
be replaced at maximum every four months.
3.4. CLEANING
Clean the fan and other surfaces of the cooker hood
regularly using a cloth moistened with denatured
alcohol or non abrasive liquid detergent.
4. SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Take care when the cooker hood is operating
simultaneously with an open fireplace or burner
that depend on the air in the environment and are
supplied by other than electrical energy, as the cooker
hood removes the air from the environment which a
burner or fireplace need for combustion. The negative
pressure in the environment must not exceed 4 Pa (4
x 10 –5 bar).
Provide adequate ventilation in the environment for a
safe operation of the cooker hood.
Follow the local laws applicable for external air
evacuation.

may be a danger hazard.
