Regular maintenance ensures optimal performance and extends the lifespan of your cooker hood.

6.1 تنظيف مرشحات الشحوم

The grease filters capture airborne grease particles. They should be cleaned regularly (approximately every 2-4 weeks, depending on usage) to maintain efficiency and prevent fire hazards.

• إزالة: Disconnect the hood from the power supply. Locate the filter release catches, usually spring-loaded, and pull them to release the filters.
• تنظيف: Wash the filters by hand in hot soapy water or in a dishwasher on a low-temperature cycle. Ensure they are completely dry before re-installation.
• إعادة التثبيت: Insert the dry filters back into their slots, ensuring they click securely into place.

6.2 Replacing Carbon Filters (for Recirculation Mode)

If your hood operates in recirculation mode, it uses activated carbon filters to remove odors. These filters cannot be washed and must be replaced every 3-6 months, depending on usage.

• إزالة: Disconnect power. Remove the grease filters. The carbon filters are typically located behind the grease filters, attached to the motor housing. Follow the specific instructions provided with your carbon filters for removal.
• الاستبدال: Install new carbon filters, ensuring they are correctly oriented and secured.

6.3 تنظيف الجزء الخارجي

Clean the exterior surfaces of the hood with a soft cloth and a mild, non-abrasive detergent. Avoid using harsh chemicals, abrasive cleaners, or scouring pads, especially on the glass surfaces, as they can damage the finish.
