Cleaning and care

Before any cleaning or maintenance
work disconnect the cooker hood
from the mains supply. Ensure that:
– it is switched off at the wall socket
and the plug has been withdrawn
(do not pull on the cable, only on the
plug), or
– the fuse has been withdrawn from
the fused spur connection unit, or
– the mains fuse is withdrawn, or
– the screw-out fuse is removed (in
countries where this is applicable).

Important for appliances with a
stainless steel housing:
Stainless steel surfaces can be cleaned
using a proprietary non-abrasive clean-
ing agent designed specifically for use
on stainless steel.
Avoid:
– cleaning agents containing soda, ac-
ids or chlorides,
– abrasive cleaning agents e.g. pow-
der cleaners or cream cleaners
– abrasive sponges, e.g. pot scourers
or sponges which have been previ-
ously used with abrasive cleaning
agents. These will damage the sur-
face material.
To help prevent re-soiling, proprietary
conditioning agents for stainless steel
can also be used.
Apply sparingly with an even pressure.
