Cleaning the grease filter
The grease filters should be kept clean to minimise the risk of fire.
At least once a month you should remove and clean the grease
filters with hot soapy water. You can also wash the grease filters in a
dishwasher, ensuring that you place it in an upright position to prevent
damage from other items in the dishwasher. After rinsing and drying,
replace the filters.
To remove the grease filters, pull open the handle on the grease
filter. It will release at the handle side. Then lower the grease filter to
remove it completely (fig. 2). To replace the grease filter, repeat the
steps in reverse.
Please note:
Cleaning the grease filters in the dishwasher may lead to
discolouration. This is normal and does not constitute a fault with the
appliance.
Changing the charcoal filter (re-circulating only)
To ensure best performance of your extractor, you should replace the
charcoal filters every four to six months, depending on use.
To attach a new charcoal filter, first remove the grease filters as
described above. Then offer up the charcoal filter to the side of the
motor as shown in figure 3 and turn it clockwise until it locks into
place. Repeat with the other charcoal filter on the other side of the
motor. Then replace the grease filters and cover panels.
