In high humidity or coastal environments, clean more frequently. Disconnect from the power source before cleaning. Do not operate without filters.

Aluminum filters

• Clean filters at least once a month; more frequently depending on cooking habits.
• Clean aluminum filters with hot soapy water or in a dishwasher.
• If using a dishwasher, place filters upright to prevent food from falling on them.
• After rinsing and drying, refit the filters.

Carbon filters (for recirculation mode)

Active carbon filters are disposable and remove grease and odours. Replace them periodically, at least every three months, depending on usage. Saturated filters can limit performance and are flammable. Regular replacement is recommended.

Replacing the light bulb

1. Remove the aluminum filters.
2. Lightly push the light bulb up and rotate anti-clockwise to remove.
3. Replace with a bulb of equal or lower wattage. Refer to the rangehood rating plate for details.
