8. Cleaning – care – filters
Cleaning the outside of the stainless steel exhaust hood:
A care lotion is enclosed with each device for cleaning and care. Moisten a soft cloth with care lotion
and apply it to the surface using slight pressure, let dry, and polish afterwards in brush direction. In
case of tenacious stains clean in brush direction using a special sponge (Scotch-Brite 374 green). Do
not rub by circular motions or crosswise to brush direction, since otherwise the surface is getting
scratched. After this treatment seal again with care lotion (as described above).
! On stainless steel devices, it is imperative to observe the "brush direction"!
Cleaning the inside:
Before opening it is imperative to disconnect the device form the mains power supply by
turning off main switch (17)!
When exchanging activated carbon fleece / activated carbon respectively when cleaning the metal
grease filters (7/15), clean accessible enclosure parts from grease deposits. This is to prevent a fire
hazard and optimum functioning is maintained. Please only clean using a grease-dissolving
dishwashing detergent or the grease remover included in the scope of delivery and a moist cloth.
Filters:
Caution! With increasing saturation by greasy deposits flammability increases and functioning of the
device may be impaired.
! Clean metal filters (7/15) in due time !
Before cleaning it is imperative to remove the activated carbon attachment and knurled screws!
At normal operating conditions (2 to 3 hours daily), the metal grease filter (7/15) needs to be cleaned
every 8 to 10 weeks. Cleaning should be done using the cleaning agent, which is attached to the
exhaust hood, however cleaning the filters can also be done in the dishwasher, depending on size.
The cleaning intervals for the metal filters (7) on top of the hood body shorten in the pollen-rich season.
The inner layers of the metal grease filters consist of aluminum. This is of great resistance against
chemical influences (corrosion resistance). However it is affected by sodium carbonate and caustic
soda so that after cleaning in the dishwasher, brownish discolorations could appear. The frame and the
cover sheet of those metal filters are made of stainless steel.
Do not clean metal grease filters (7/15) together with other dishes or cookware.
When cleaning by hand, flush through filters strongly several times in hot water with dishwashing
detergent.
Exchanging activated carbon
Before opening it is imperative to disconnect the device form the mains power supply by
turning off main switch (17)!
Activated carbon is applied for the absorption of odorous substances. The exchange of activated
carbon happens in intervals from 3 months to 1 year, depending on contamination.
• Under any circumstances make device currentless by switching off main switch (17)!
• Flap down grease collecting pan (12)
• Remove stainless steel filter (15)
• Loosen both knurled screws
• Take off stainless steel frame and take out carbon cartridge
Page 8
• At the carbon cartridge again loosen 2 knurled screws and change old carbon against new carbon
• Retighten knurled screws loosened before
• Insert stainless steel filter (15) into hood body

carbon cartridge (rear side)
9. What to do if …
Hood crackles:
Some sporadic crackling in the hood is normal. It indicates that air is cleaned by the ionizer. When
crackling continues persistently, the upper metal filters and the ionize sheet must be cleaned.
Furthermore you should check if the connector of the supply cable is connected to the ionizer sheet
horizontally.
In case of undervoltage it can happen in power step 1 that the interconnecting relay for the ionizer and
for the UVC lamp switches on and off several times (flips). You can eliminate this by shortly activating
power step 3.
Hood cannot be switched on:
Check if all filters are inserted correctly, since each filter is provided with a microswitch, which interrupt
the circuit in the hood if any of the filters is not correctly in place.

14. Information
Information regarding the heat detector (11):
We care about your safety. For that reason we have installed a thermo sensor (11) at this air
purification center that functions as follows.
If directly under the exhaust hood a temperature between 69 °C and 71 °C is reached, a siren sounds
automatically and the power supply to the device is interrupted. After cooling down to ca. 30 °C – 35 °C
the siren automatically goes of again.
Information regarding the ionizer:
The ionizer freshens the air. The negative ions clean the air from very fine dust particles, from bacteria
floating in the air on positive ions, from floating viruses and fungal spores. Through the airflow caused
by the built-in motor, particles are carried to a metal filter where they deposit. Those deposits are
removed by cleaning the upper metal filters (3) on a regular basis.
Using the ionizer is not hazardous! Even from high dose of negative ions doesn't do you any harm. A
high dose of positive ions however can make you sick, tired, slackly, sometimes even irritated and
aggressive.
Information regarding the disinfection radiator (14):
This disinfection radiator is a special low-pressure mercury vapor radiator emitting short-wave ultra
violet radiation whereas the disinfecting effect of which is by far superior to the one of natural solar
irradiation. It destroys effectively all microorganisms such as bacteria, viruses, spores, yeasts, algae,
protozoa, and mold fungi – and all that without ozone!
!! Since UV-C radiation is hazardous to the eye, never look directly into the turned on lamp !!
WARNING:
Touching the lamp with bare hands causes spots. Always use a clean cloth or wear clean gloves!
If quartz glass was touched by hands, it must be cleaned first using little alcohol before putting it in
operation.
