Changing the light bulbs
Disconnect the extraction hood from the electricity and remove the fat filters.
Unscrew the defect bulb from the fitting and screw a new bulb into the fitting.
Only use bulbs of the same dimensions and wattage.
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.
The cooker hood paintwork will stay looking nice if you wax it occasionally.
Stainless steel canopy hoods
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.

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.
Carbon filters
The carbon filter must be used if the cooker hood is not connected to a duct
(see extraction systems on page 17).
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.
Fitting the carbon filter
Fit the carbon filters (A) to the motors and rotate them once fully to secure
them.
The extraction hood must be set to the recirculation setting by rotating the
2 knobs (B) once.
