Maintenance, cleaning and care
It is essential that the ceiling fan is serviced regularly to ensure the performance of the
unit for a long time. If the metal grease filter is clogged with grease and dirt particles,
the function of the appliance will be severely impaired.
The activated charcoal filter (only for recirculation mode) should be regenerated or
replaced regularly. You can order replacement charcoal filters from your specialist
dealer or from our spare parts service.

Grease filter
To remove the grease filters, press down the handle of the filter and remove the grease
filter from the bonnet.
To insert the grease filter, first reinsert it, making sure that the two lower tabs are
inserted exactly into the two holes of the filter frame. Press down the handle until the
upper part of the grease filter is also fully seated in the filter frame and then release it.
Depending on your cooking and frying habits, you should clean the metal grease filters
about every fortnight.
Soak the grease filters well in hot rinsing water, clean them with a soft brush and then
rinse them well with hot water. Repeat the process if necessary.
The grease filters can also be cleaned in the dishwasher on a normal programme at
55 °C.
Due to possible grease deposits on dishes or the accumulation of food residues in the
mesh, the grease filters should be cleaned separately from dishes and glasses. Heavily
clogged grease filters should be soaked well in hot rinsing water beforehand.
