Cleaning the grease filters:
The
(Grease filter saturation) symbol flashes
on the display after an operating time of 30 hours.
Flashing of this symbol signals to you that the
grease filters have to be cleaned. The grease filters
can be cleaned at any time, even if the
(Grease
filter saturation) symbol does not flash. The metal
filters can be removed easily for cleaning.
Proceed as follows:
– Grip the grease filter handles and press the
slide towards the rear.
– Pull the grease filter out of its mount in the
downward direction (Fig. 12).
– Repeat the operation with the other grease
filters.
You can clean the metal grease filters in a
dishwasher at a maximum temperature of 65 °C.
Place the grease filters vertically in the dishwasher
to ensure that no food remainders will stay on them.
Slight discoloration can occur when cleaning the
grease filters in a dishwasher.
When replacing the grease filters, wipe out
the inner part of the housing with hot detergent
solution.
Reinsert the grease filters in the hood after
cleaning. Install them in the reverse order to
removal.
Press the
(Grease filter) key to set the elapsed
hours counter to zero; the
(Grease filter) symbol
stops flashing.
Do not clean
the appliance with a steam cleaning
apparatus or with water pressure because this
poses a
risk of short-circuits
.
