Filters and maintenance
Grease lters:
Metal-mesh lters are used to trap the grease
particles in the cooking vapours.
The lter mats are made from noncombustible
metal.
Caution:
As the lter becomes more and more saturated with
grease, there is an increased risk of re and the
function of the extractor hood may be impaired.
Important:
By cleaning the metal grease lters at appropriate
intervals, the possibility of them catching re as a re-
sult of a build-up of heat such as occurs when deep-
fat frying or roasting is taking place, is reduced.
They are dishwashable and need washing about
every month or more frequently in case of a particu-
larly intensive use.
Removing and inserting metal self- supporting
grease lters
First unhook the lter-holding Grid by acting on
the special Handles.
Unhook the security chain by opening the
shackle, then lift the grid upward.
