Filters and maintenance
Grease filters:
Metal-mesh filters are used to trap the grease
particles in the cooking vapours.
The filter mats are made from noncombustible
metal.
Caution:
As the filter becomes more and more saturated with
grease, there is an increased risk of fire and the
function of the extractor hood may be impaired.
Important:
By cleaning the metal grease filters at appropriate
intervals, the possibility of them catching fire as a re -
sult of a build-up of heat such as occurs when deep-
fat frying or roasting is taking place, is reduced.
Filters can be washed in the dish machine. They
need to be washed when F -sign appears on the
display or in any case every month, or even more
frequently in case of particularly intensive use of the
hood.
