Installation and service Any electrical installation of the cooker hood must be carried out by a qualified electrician and the hood itself must be installed by someone with experience. Installation made by an unqualified person can lead to loss of function of the cooker hood and possible damage to person and and/or property. q The cooker hood must be at least 50 cm above electric hobs or electric ranges, or at least 65 cm above gas burners or gas ranges. [. . . ] The cleaner the filters, the more grease they collect. 3): q Push the handle towards the rear of the hood. q Pull the filter down at the front and remove it forwards. The filter is made of aluminium wires on which the grease collects. Clean the filter in hot water using a detergent, or in a dishwasher. Let the filter dry before putting it back. Note that a dishwasher may discolour the filter. Fig. 3 Changing and cleaning the carbon filter Only applicable for recirculation. The carbon filters absorb smells and odours. Unlike other carbon filters, the LONGLIFE carbon filter can be cleaned and reactivated. At normal use the filter should be cleaned every second month. The best way to clean the filter is in the dishwasher. Use normal detergent and choose the highest temperature (65º C). Wash the filter separately so that no food parts gets stuck on the filter and later causes bad odours. To reactivate the carbon, the filter should be dried in an oven for 10 minutes with a temperature of maximum 100º C. The KFL 60/80 carbon filter can not be reactivated, it has to be changed after 6-8 months of normal use. 6 After approximately three years of use, the KF8 filter should be replaced with a new, as the odour reduction capacity will be reduced. q Press the red buttons (A), lower the front of the carbon filter. The grease that collects in the filters and the duct could ignite if a hot plate is left on (or if overheating occurs).
