CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE Cleaning DANGER Always switch off the electricity supply at the breaker box during installation, cleaning, or maintenance. NOTE The efficiency of the range hood depends on the cleanliness of the intake and filters. Grease should not be allowed to accumulate on hood or filter. Clean the appliance in the following intervals: Use a soft cloth moistened with hand-warm mildly soapy water or household cleaning detergent. Never use metal pads, chemical, abrasive material or stiff brush to clean the appliance. IMPORTANT Clean the filter every month to prevent risk of fire. Maintenance User service-Do not repair or replace any part of the appliance unless specifically recommended in the manual. All other servicing should be referred to a qualified technician. IMPORTANT Parts and accessories not provided with your hood, or for replacement, can be purchased at www.electrolux.com or by calling 1-800-944-9044 (USA) or 1-800-265-8352 (Canada). Aluminum filter: The filter collects grease, smoke and dust so the filter is directly affecting the efficiency of the range hood. If not cleaned, the grease residue(potential flammable) will saturate on the filter. Clean it with household cleaning detergent. The filter is dishwasher safe. Recirculation box: clean the ventilation openings on the top sides. Charcoal filters: If the model is not vented to the outside, the air will be recirculated through disposable charcoal filters that help remove smoke and odors. The charcoal filters cannot be cleaned, they must be replaced regularly (depending on range hood usage). Note: Do not rinse or put charcoal filters in a dishwasher. Note: Charcoal filters are not included with the range hood. E 15 ENGLISH
