Cleaning and care
Disconnect the extractor hood from the
electricity supply by pulling out the
mains plug or switching it off at the fuse
box.
❑ At the same time as you clean the
grease filters, clean off any grease from
all accessible parts of the housing. This
significantly reduces the fire hazard and
ensures that the extractor hood
performs as effectively as possible.
❑ Use a hot detergent solution or a mild
window cleaner to clean the canopy of
the extractor hood.
❑ Do not scrape off any dirt that has dried
on but loosen it up with a damp cloth.
❑ Do not use abrasive cleaning agents or
sponges that could cause scratches.
❑ Note: Do not use alcohol (spirit) on
plastic parts, otherwise the surface may
become matt in appearance.
Caution: Ensure that the kitchen is ade-
quately ventilated. Avoid naked flames!
ṇ Clean the operating buttons with a mild
soapy solution and a soft, damp cloth only.
Do not use stainless-steel cleaner to clean
the operating buttons.
Stainless steel surfaces:
❑ Use a mild non-abrasive stainless steel
cleaner.
❑ Clean the surface in the same direction
as it has been ground and polished.
ṇ Do not use any of the following to clean
stainless steel surfaces: abrasive sponges,
cleaning agents containing sand, soda, acid
or chloride!
Aluminium and plastic surfaces:
❑ Use a soft, non-linting window cloth or
micro-fibre cloth.
❑ Do not use dry cloths.
❑ Use a mild window cleaning agent.
❑ Do not use aggressive, acidic or caustic
cleaners.
❑ Do not use abrasive agents.
4. Re-insert the bulb ring.
5. Plug the appliance into the mains or
switch it on at the fuse box.
Note: If the light does not function, check
that the bulbs have been inserted correctly.
Replacing the light bulbs
1. Switch off the extractor hood and pull
out the mains plug or switch off the
electricity supply at the fuse box.
ṇ When switched on, the halogen bulbs
become very hot. Even for some time after
the bulbs have been switched off there is
still a risk of burns.
2. Remove the bulb ring with a screwdriver
or similar tool.
3. Replace the halogen light bulb
(conventional halogen bulb, 12 Volt,
max. 20 Watt, G4 cap).
Caution: Refer for plug-in lampholder.
Take hold of the bulb with a clean cloth.
