8. Cleaning – care – filters
Cleaning the outside of the stainless steel exhaust hood:
A care lotion is enclosed with each device for cleaning and care. Moisten a soft cloth with care lotion
and apply it to the surface using slight pressure, let dry, and polish afterwards in brush direction. In
case of tenacious stains clean in brush direction using a special sponge (Scotch-Brite 374 green). Do
not rub by circular motions or crosswise to brush direction, since otherwise the surface is getting
scratched. After this treatment seal again with care lotion (as described above).
! On stainless steel devices, it is imperative to observe the "brush direction"!
Cleaning the inside:
Before opening it is imperative to
disconnect the device form the mains power supply by
turning off main switch (17)!
When exchanging activated carbon fleece / activated carbon respectively when cleaning the metal
grease filters (7/15), clean accessible enclosure parts from grease deposits. This is to prevent a fire
hazard and optimum functioning is maintained. Please only clean using a grease-dissolving
dishwashing detergent or the grease remover included in the scope of delivery and a moist cloth.
Filters:
Caution!
With increasing saturation by greasy deposits flammability increases and functioning of the
device may be impaired.
! Clean metal filters (7/15) in due time !
Before cleaning it is imperative to remove the activated carbon attachment and knurled screws!
At normal operating conditions (2 to 3 hours daily), the metal grease filter (7/15) needs to be cleaned
every 8 to 10 weeks. Cleaning should be done using the cleaning agent, which is attached to the
exhaust hood, however cleaning the filters can also be done in the dishwasher, depending on size.
The cleaning intervals for the metal filters (7) on top of the hood body shorten in the pollen-rich season.
The inner layers of the metal grease filters consist of aluminum. This is of great resistance against
chemical influences (corrosion resistance). However it is affected by sodium carbonate and caustic
soda so that after cleaning in the dishwasher, brownish discolorations could appear. The frame and the
cover sheet of those metal filters are made of stainless steel.
Do not clean metal grease filters (7/15) together with other dishes or cookware.
When cleaning by hand, flush through filters strongly several times in hot water with dishwashing
detergent.
Exchanging activated carbon
Before opening it is imperative to
disconnect the device form the mains power supply by
turning off main switch (17)!
Activated carbon is applied for the absorption of odorous substances. The exchange of activated
carbon happens in intervals from 3 months to 1 year, depending on contamination.
•
Under any circumstances make device currentless by switching off main switch (17)!
•
Flap down grease collecting pan (12)
•
Remove stainless steel filter (15)
•
Loosen both knurled screws
•
Take off stainless steel frame and take out carbon cartridge
