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 vapours 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 least every 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.

Clean the fan and other surfaces of the cooker hood regularly using a cloth moistened with

non abrasive liquid detergent.

THE MANUFACTURER DECLINES ALL RESPONSIBILITY FOR EVENTUAL

DAMAGES CAUSED BY BREACHING THE ABOVE WARNINGS.

NOT WORKING PROPERLY?

Light bulb doesn’t come on?

A replacement bulb is probably necessary, but first check that the bulb is firmly fitted.

If the filament is broken, remember, remember that the light bulbs are not covered by

our guarantee. Remember to disconnect the power supply before removing the bulb.

Motor is on but fan doesn’t seem to be as efficient as usual?

Check the grease filter mat. If it hasn’t been cleaned recently, it might be clogged with

grease. If the filter mat is relatively clean, check the charcoal filter. If this hasn’t been

replaced for more than six months, remove it and insert a new one.

Works normally but cooking smells linger?

If you’re using the unit in re-circulation mode, change the charcoal filter. It is obviously

past it’s prime.

Control fails to switch motor on?

Check the plug, socket and fuse. If these are in order and the fault persists, it could be

that an accumulation of grease has impaired the efficiency of the switch mechanism.

Try rapidly moving the switch on and off several times in succession to clear grease

deposits. If the fault continues, call the service agent.

Appliance does not work at all?

Check your extractor is switched on at the mains. Next, check for an unexpected power

failure by switching on adjacent lights etc.

Still not working? Call the service agent on 0870 2411 142
