Cooker hoods FAQs

• How do I clean a cooker hood filter?
  First, switch off your hood and remove the metallic grease filter. Fill a bucket with boiling water and adding about ¼ cup of baking soda. Use a brush to mix the solution until it is soapy and place your filters in the bucket. Make sure that the filters are completely submerged. Soak for 10 minutes, then scrub the filters with a non-abrasive scrub brush. Rinse the filters with hot water and wipe dry before placing them back into the hood. Selected Electrolux hood models have key functions that help shorten your cleaning time. For instance, the Power Boost function helps set the maximum airflow to up to 1,300m3/h to cut down cleaning time.
  
  When cleaning your Electrolux hoods, keep in mind that they often come with multi-layer grease filters. Some hood models have a carbon filter for odour control, so check and read up about your model to ensure that it gets a proper, thorough clean.
