Filters and maintenance
Metal grease filter
The filter mat is made of non-combustible
metal.
Caution:
As it becomes more and more saturated
with grease, the filter also becomes
increasingly inflammable. The efficiency of
the extractor hood can also be adversely
affected.
Important:
Clean the metal grease filter at regular
intervals.
Cleaning the metal filter:
Under normal operating conditions (1 to 2
hours per day), the metal grease filter will
require cleaning after 8 to 10 weeks.
The filter can be cleaned in a
dishwasher.
This can however cause slight
discoloration.
Important:
Metal filters that are heavily saturated with
grease should not be cleaned at the same
time as any crockery, etc.
If the filter mat is going to be cleaned by
hand, soak it first of all in a hot deter-
gent solution for several hours.
Clean the filter with a brush, rinse it off
thoroughly and allow it to drip dry.
Use only original replacement filters.
In so doing you will be ensuring that the
extractor hood performs as effectively
as possible.
