LIGHTING
G
1. LED LAMP
In hoods equipped with LED lighting, replacement of the LED lamp must be carried out
by qualified technicians and using only original spare parts.
2. FLUORESCENT LAMP
In hoods equipped with fluorescent lamps (for example SPRING hood) perform the fol-
lowing sequence for the replacement of the fluorescent tube:
a) Disconnect the hood from the power supply;
b) Remove the front glass loosening the relative internal fastening screws;
c) Remove the broken fluorescent tube rotating it 90° and replace it with one having
similar characteristics (Tube T5 13W);
d) In reverse order repeat the operations starting from point b.
Reconnect the device to the power supply.
MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING
H
A constant maintenance ensures a proper operation and efficiency over time. Special atten-
tion must be paid to the metal grease-trapping filters, in order to prevent dangerous grease to
accumulate on the range hood, with consequent risk of fire.
1. METAL GREASE-TRAPPING FILTERS
These trap the grease particles suspended in the air; therefore, we recommend washing
them frequently (every 2/3 weeks) with hot water and detergent, preventing them from
bending. Before installing them back, wait until they are fully dried. To disassemble and
assemble them, see instructions at section F1. Operations must be performed frequently
and constantly, in order to prevent oils, greases and dust to enter inside the ionising sys-
tem.
2. CARBON.ZEO COMBINED FILTERS
CARBON.ZEO filters do not require special maintenance. In normal use conditions, we
recommend regenerating them every 18 months and replacing them after 3 years. Be-
fore starting any operation, disconnect the range hood from the mains. To remove it see
paragraph F2. To regenerate the CARBON.ZEO filter (every 18 months); remove the fabric
mesh-holder lower frame (TPM) from the combined filter (see fig. H2) and put it in a normal
domestic oven at a temperature of 200°C for approximately 2 hours. Once the filter has
been cooled, re-install the fabric mesh-holder lower frame (TPM) on the hood, following
the inverse order of the procedure described in section F2.
Reconnect the range hood to the mains.
3. EXTERNAL CLEANING
We recommend cleaning the external surfaces of the range hoods at least every 15 days,
to prevent that oily or greasy substance can damage the range hood surfaces.
The hood must be carefully cleaned using a humid cloth with neutral liquid detergent or
denatured alcohol, in order to not damage the surfaces and active components of the
range hood.
Do not use products containing abrasive substances, rough cloths or cloths commonly
marketed for cleaning steel. Failure to comply with these indications will deteriorate ir-
reversibly the steel surfaces.
