How do I clean the motor and the inside of my extractor hood?
You clean the inside of your extractor hood by wiping it down with a damp microfiber cloth with a little dish soap or mild detergent. In order for your extractor hood to keep working flawlessly the inside and motor regularly needs to be cleaned, at least once every three months.
Remember to turn off the power supply to the product when cleaning. Clean the inside of the extractor hood and motor regularly to keep it working flawlessly, at least once every three months.
If you have a carbon filter in your fan, it needs to be removed and cleaned separately. How to clean the carbon filter is in the fan's manual.
The other components in the fan cannot be removed, but they are cleaned on site in the fan.
