Irrespectively of this manual exist only germany language, it's useful - although i need some additional task to translate: My english is bad, but usable - but i really dont speak germany. :)
Excellent service from this company (including a total refund on an earlier purchase when through no fault of the company the manual was incomplete). I have purchased several manuals which I have been very satisfied with, as I am with this one. Highly recommended.
Manual was delivered in a timely manner and was all in English as advertised. The manuals I received when we moved into our flat were in German, Italian, and French. Having never used a steamer before, and not speaking/reading German very well, I needed an English Manual. this was a huge help.
Great Manual. This manual is available no where else. It was exactly what I was looking for. Only in German.

Maintenance and cleaning
Disconnect the cooker hood from the power supply prior to cleaning the appliance, either by removing the plug from the mains or removing the fuse. Clean the filter regularly. The grease deposits in the filter and discharge tube are fire hazards where a hotplate (or another heat source) is left on by error.
Cleaning the hood
Clean the outside of the hood using a damp cloth and a mild detergent. Never use corrosive, abrasive or flammable cleaning products.
Cleaning the grease filters
Clean the filter every month or every other month according to how much the hood is used. The cleaner the filters, the more grease they collect. To remove the filters, Fig. 3: � First of all, push the stop on the metal grease filter back, and then extract the filter by pulling downward. The filter is made of aluminium wires on which the Fig. 3 grease collects. Clean the filter in hot water using a detergent, or in a dishwasher. Let the filter dry before putting it back. Note that a dishwasher may discolour the filter.
Changing and cleaning the charcoal filter
The charcoal filter should only be used if you want to use the hood in its filtering function. The charcoal filters absorb smells and odours. Unlike other charcoal filters, the LONGLIFE charcoal filter can be cleaned and reactivated. At normal use the filter should be cleaned every second month. The best way to clean the filter is in the dishwasher. Use normal detergent and choose the highest temperature (65º C). Wash the filter separately so that no food parts gets stuck on the filter and later causes bad odours. To reactivate the charcoal, the filter should be dried in an oven for 10 minutes with a temperature of maximum 100º C. 55
