MAINTENANCE
CAUTION:
GREASE FILTERS
Metal grease filters have an unlimited life and should be washed once a month either by hand or in a
dishwasher at a low temperature and with a short cycle. Washing in a dishwasher can cause grease filters
to turn white, but this in no way affects efficiency.
Pull out the handle to remove the filter.
Wash the filter and leave it to dry, proceeding in reverse order to refit it.
REPLACING LAMPS
The hood lighting system is based on LED technology.
The LEDs provide optimal illumination, with a lifetime up to ten times longer than traditional lamps but
with 90% less energy consumption.
To replace them, proceed as follows:
1. Remove the grease filters.
2. Access the lamps inside the hood.
3. Press the release springs to unfasten the lamp.
4. Take the lamp out of the hood.
5. Disconnect the electrical terminal.
Fit the replacement lamp by performing the above steps in reverse.
N.B.: To purchase replacement LED lamps, contact the technical support service.
