15 MAINTENANCE
Changing the light bulbs
Slide the cath (1) in the direction indicated
and fold the cover (2) downwards. Pull the
bulb (3) in the direction of the arrow and out of
the holder, then fit the new bulb. Take care
not to touch the bulb with your hands when
you replace it, since direct contact with the
skin can result in the bulb burning out.
Cleaning
Cooker hood
Clean the cooker hood with soapy water and a
soft cloth, then wipe with clean water to rinse.
Do not use aggressive cleaning agents such
as soda.
Do not use any sort of scourer. Treat with
Stahlfix (supermarket) and polish with the
structure of the stainless steel.
Filters
■ Wash aluminium filters, every week in
soapy water. The cleaning agents will
make the aluminium filter turn dull, this is
normal.
■ The carbon filters cannot be cleaned to use
again.
Replacing carbon filters
The carbon filter must be used if the cooker
hood is not connected to a duct (see
extraction systems on page 12).
Note:
■ The carbon filter must be replaced at least
twice a year, depending on how much the
cooker hood is used.
■ Carbon filters cannot be cleaned to use
again.
■ Saturated carbon is harmful to the
environment, replace the filter regularly.
Removing the filter panel
Switch off the electricity! Remove the plug
from the socket or switch the electricity off at
the mains. Pull the grille towards you and tilt it
downwards at the front.
Display and functioning of the filter
saturation indicator
The degree of saturation of the grease filter is
indicated by means of a luminous display. If
button
/ is pressed when the extractor
hood is switched off, the display lights up; the
colours displayed have the following
meanings:
■ green light: in use for less than 6 working
hours
■ yellow light: in use for 6 to 12 working
hours
■ red light: in use for more than 12 working
hours (the grease filter should be cleaned
or, if necessary, replaced).
■ Once you have cleaned the grease filters, you
can reset the cleaning indication by pressing
the button
/ for longer than 5 seconds.
Fitting the carbon filter
Fix the carbon filter into the underneath of the
motor housing with the plastic clips (A).
Replace the filter grids in the extractor hood.
