CLEANING AND CARE
Cleaning the surfaces
Danger due to electric shock! Disconnect the extractor hood from the power supply by
pulling the plug out of the socket or by switching off the fuse. When cleaning, make sure
that no water penetrates the device. Regular cleaning of the surface saves laborious re-
moval of stubborn contamination. Only use conventional detergents or universal cleaning
agents suitable for cleaning stainless steel/aluminium. Never use abrasive cleaning
agents or steel wool. After cleaning the hood, treat the stainless steel surfaces with a
stainless steel care product. Painted surfaces should only be cleaned using a mild deter-
gent solution and a very soft cloth. Only use a soft damp cloth to clean the operating pa-
nel. On hoods fitted with a panel below the filter (edge extraction), grease deposits occur
at the edge of the panel. These deposits occur for physical reasons and are not due to a
malfunction of the hood. Please clean the panel underneath the filter regularly to prevent
the formation of stubborn residues.
Cleaning and care instructions
When cleaning the grease filters, also remove any grease deposits from the accessible
housing components. This will prevent a fire hazard and maintain an optimum range of
functions. Use hot soapy water or a mild window cleaning agent to clean the hood. Do not
scratch off baked-on deposits. Soften them using a damp cloth. Do not use abrasive
agents or scouring pads. Note: Do not use alcohol (spirits) on plastic surfaces, as dull
spots may result.
Caution: Ventilate the kitchen sufficiently, no open flame.
Only clean the operating panel with a soft damp cloth (mild detergent solution). Do not
use stainless steel cleaners for the sliding switch/pressure switch.
Stainless steel surfaces
Use a mild and non-abrasive stainless steel cleaning agent. Do not clean stainless steel
surfaces with abrasive scouring pads or with cleaning agents containing sand, soda, acid
or chloride! Clean in direction of polish only. We recommend our stainless steel cleaner
no. 461731. See the enclosed service booklet for the order address.
Aluminium, varnished and plastic surfaces
Use a soft micro fibre cloth. Do not use dry cloths. Use a mild window-cleaning agent. Do
not use aggressive cleaning agents or agents containing
acid or lye! Do not use scouring agents.
Glass surfaces:
The glass front installed on the extractor hood must
only be
cleaned with a mild glass cleaner and a very soft cloth.
Please do not under any circumstances clean the middle
glass plate in the dishwasher - risk of matting!
