Correct use ~ Never use an open flame beneath the cooker hood. To avoid the danger of fire, do not flambé or grill over an open flame. When switched on, the cooker hood could draw flames into the filter. Fat particles drawn into the cooker hood present a fire hazard.

Important for appliances with lacquered housing (special order finish) It is very difficult to clean this type of surface without causing minor marks to the surface material. This can become particularly noticeable with darker colours and if there is halogen lighting in the kitchen.
Grease filters The re-usable metal grease filters in the appliance remove solid particles (grease, dust, etc.) from the kitchen vapours, preventing soiling of the cooker hood. The grease filters should be cleaned at least every 3-4 weeks to avoid a build-up of grease, but always clean immediately if the grease filter touch control lamp comes on.
When removing the filters for cleaning, also clean off any residues of oil or fat from the now accessible housing to prevent the risk of these catching fire. When putting the grease filters back in position, ensure that the locking clips are facing down towards the hob.
Always replace the charcoal filter im - mediately if – the indicator lamp for the charcoal filter lights up, or – if it is no longer effective in absorbing kitchen odours. It should, however, be replaced at least every 6 months. Used charcoal filters can be disposed of with the normal household waste.
