MAINTENANCE
Before cleaning or carrying out maintenance operations, disconnect the
equipment by removing the plug or switching off the main switch.
Do not use detergents containing abrasive, acidic or corrosive substances
or abrasive cloths.
Regular maintenance guarantees proper operation and performance over time.
Special attention is to be paid to the metal anti-grease filters : frequent cleaning of the
filters and their supports ensures that no flammable grease is accumulated.
CLEANING OF EXTERNAL SURFACES
You are advised to clean the external surfaces of the hood at least once every 15 days to
prevent oily substances and grease from sticking to them. To clean the brushed stainless
steel hood, the Manufacturer recommends using "Magic Steel" wipes.
Alternatively and for all the other types of surfaces, it can be cleaned using a damp cloth,
slightly moistened with mild, liquid detergent or denatured alcohol.
Complete cleaning by rinsing well and drying with soft cloths.
Do not use too much moisture or water around the push button control
panel and lighting devices in order to prevent humidity from reaching
electronic parts.
Do not wash the flaps in a dishwasher.
The glass panels can only be cleaned with specific, non-corrosive or non-abrasive deter-
gents using a soft cloth.
The Manufacturer declines all responsibility for failure to comply with these instructions.
CLEANING OF INTERNAL SURFACES
Do not clean electrical parts, or parts related to the motor inside the hood,
with liquids or solvents.
For the internal metal parts, see the previous paragraph.
METAL ANTI-GREASE FILTERS
It is advised to frequently wash the metal filters (F) (at least once a month) leaving them
to soak in boiling water and cleaning solution for 1 hour, taking care not to bend them.
Do not use corrosive, acid or alkaline detergents.
Rinse them well and wait for them to be completely dry before reassembling them.
Washing in a dishwasher is permitted, however, it may cause the filter material to darken: to
reduce the possibility of this problem from happening, use low-temperature washes (55°C
max.).
To extract and insert the metal anti-grease filters see the assembly instructions.
CARBON-ZEO FILTERS
Under normal conditions, they should be regenerated every 18 months and replaced after
3 years. To regenerate the filter, follow the following procedure:
- Remove the filter as described in the instructions (Fig. 12).
- Insert filters A, B and C (if any) in a domestic oven at 200°C for about 2 hours.
- When the filter has cooled down, refit the 4 filters onto the metal structure of the filter.
GREASE DRIP TRAY
It is advisable to clean the tray every 15 days.
Do not use corrosive, acid or alkaline detergents.
For more thorough cleaning, remove the oil collection tray (see figure) and wash it with
hot water and washing up liquid. Rinse it well and wait for it to be completely dry before
reassembling it. They are dishwasher safe.
