All safety warnings are preceded by the attention symbol and the following terms: DANGER: WARNING: indicates a hazardous situation which, if not avoided, will cause serious injury. indicates a hazardous situation which, if not avoided, could cause serious injury. All safety warnings give specific details of the potential danger/warning present and indicate how to reduce risk of injury, damage and electric shock resulting from improper use of the appliance. Carefully observe the following instructions: • Installation and maintenance must be carried out by a qualified technician, in compliance with the manufacturer's instructions and local safety regulations. [. . . ] Disconnect the appliance from the power supply. IMPORTANT: do not use corrosive or abrasive detergents. If any of these products accidentally comes into contact with the appliance, clean immediately with a damp cloth. • Clean the surfaces with a damp cloth. If it is very dirty, add a few drops of washing up detergent to the water. Finish off with a dry cloth. IMPORTANT: do not use abrasive sponges or metallic scrapers or scourers. Over time, these can ruin the enamel surface. • Use detergents specifically designed for cleaning the appliance and follow the manufacturer instructions. IMPORTANT: clean the filters at least monthly to remove any oil or grease residuals. GB13 MAINTENANCE Warning!Before carrying out any cleaning or maintenance operations disconnect the hood from the power supply by removing the plug from the socket, or switching the general house mains switch off. GREASE FILTER MAINTENANCE The filter traps all cooking grease particles. Wash the metal grease filter once a month (or when the filter dirty notification system indicates that the filter needs washing). The filter must be washed using a soft detergent. It may be hand washed, or placed in the dishwasher on a short low temperature cycle. Note: If washed in the dishwasher, the colour of the metal grease filter may fade. This will have no effect on its performance. 2 Remove the grease filter by rotating the knobs (g) that secure the filter to the hood 90°. To refit the grease filter follow the inverse procedure. CARBON FILTER MAINTENANCE The carbon filter traps unpleasant cooking smells. Differently from traditional carbon filters, this type of carbon filter may be cleaned and reactivated. With normal use of the hood, the filter should be washed once a month. The best way to wash the carbon filter is by placing it in the dishwasher at the highest temperature, using a standard dishwasher detergent. To avoid any food or dirt particle to get trapped in the filter during washing, causing bad smells after, we recommend that the filter is washed on its own. After washing, the carbon filter must be reactivated: place it in the oven at a temperature of 100°C for 10 minutes. [. . . ] During cooking the system promptly reacts to any Steam/Gas increase, and remains at the set speed for at least 1 minute before returning to the lower speed or switching off. At the end of cooking, when the environmental conditions have returned to those before cooking, the system switches off: However, if the conditions are similar to the stand-by parameters, the hood will be switched off 30 minutes after, even if the stand-by parameters have not actually been reached. The “Air Quality Control” mode (“LD5” comes on) uses the hood as an air monitoring system, ensuring a high air quality level. The system promptly reacts to any Steam/Gas increase, and remains at the set speed for at least 1 minute before returning to the lower speed, or switching off. [. . . ]
