extractor hood
Clean the extractor hood two to four times a
year. Clean both the grease filter as well as
the rest of the appliance. Use a liquid
detergent to clean the extractor hood.
Never use abrasive cleaning agents (such as
Vim, steel wool, green scouring pads or other
abrasive pads) or cleaning agents (such as
liquid scouring powder and Jif).
With stainless steel hoods in particular, you
risk damage to the structure so that the result
is a smudgy surface.
Never use aggressive chemical cleaning
agents. These may cause discolouration, both
on varnish and stainless steel.

Switch off the ventilator and the lighting. Pull
the filters downward.
