Grease filters and edge
extraction panel
 Risk of fire!
Oversaturated grease filters are a fire
hazard.
Clean the grease filters at regular
intervals.
The edge extraction panel and the
reusable metal grease filters in the
appliance remove solid particles
(grease, dust, etc.) from the kitchen
vapors, preventing soiling of the hood.
The grease filters and the panel must be
cleaned at regular intervals.
Heavily soiled grease filters hinder air
extraction and will lead to increased
levels of soiling in the ventilation hood
and in the kitchen.
Cleaning intervals
Grease which has collected in the
ventilation hood hardens over time and
makes cleaning more difficult. It is
therefore recommended that the edge
extraction panel and the grease filters
should be cleaned regularly (at least
every 3–4 weeks) to avoid a build-up of
grease.
Clean the edge extraction panels and
grease filter immediately if the grease
filter symbol  on the filter saturation
indicator lights up.
 You can adjust the interval of the filter
saturation counter to match your
cooking habits (see “Operation”).
