Cleaning and maintenance
Caution! Before you start cleaning
the appliance, disconnect it from the
power supply.
Aluminum fi lter
Aluminum fi lter is designed to trap
grease particles out of the fl ow of air
running through it. For this reason,
the fi lter needs regular cleaning. The
cleaning interval depends on the
frequency of use of the air cleaner.
Generally, it is recommended to clean it
once a month.
To do this, remove the fi lters, wash
them in water with a neutral liquid
detergent, dry them, then set them back
in the air cleaner. Over time, fi lters may
change color due to a regular washing.
This is a natural process, which does not
indicate a defect, so fi lter replacement
is not required.
The aluminum fi lters can be washed
in the dishwasher.
How to remove aluminum
fi lters:
1. Press on the latch of the fi lter lock.
2. Pulling down a bit, remove the
fi lter.
In order to put the fi lters in place
after cleaning, follow the above
instructions in reverse order.
Carbon fi lter (used in
recirculated air mode)
Carbon fi lter is designed to trap
odors and fumes while cooking. It is used
in cases where there is no possibility
to connect the air cleaner to a special
ventilation duct for discharging air
outward. When operating the appliance
with a carbon fi lter, contaminated air is
sucked into the appliance and passes
through a carbon fi lter, and then clean
air is supplied to the kitchen.
The carbon fi lter should be replaced
at regular intervals. The interval of fi lter
replacement depends on the frequency
of use of the air cleaner, style of cooking
and frequency of the aluminum fi lter
cleaning. Generally, it is recommended
to replace the carbon fi lter once every
4 months.
How to remove carbon fi lter:
1. Remove aluminum fi lters.
2. Turn the carbon fi lter to the left
and pull it.
3. Replace the old carbon fi lter with
the new one.
4. Put the fi lter back into place.
If necessary, clean the outside of the
air cleaner with a soft, damp cloth. Do
not use any abrasive cleaning agents.
For painted stainless steel surfaces: to
avoid scratching it is recommended to
wipe them with a soft, damp cloth in the
painting direction. Do not remove the
lamp cover during the surface cleaning
process.
Caution!
Do not use the steam generators for
cleaning.
Caution!
Not following the above rules for
cleaning the appliance and replacing
fi lters may cause fi re.
