Filters and maintenance

Grease filters:
Metal filters are used to trap the greasy
element of the vapours that develop during
cooking.
The filter mats are made from non-
combustible metal.
Caution:
As the filter becomes more and more
saturated with grease, not only does the risk
of it catching fire increase but the efficiency
of the extractor hood can also be adversely
affected.
Important:
By cleaning the metal grease filters at
appropriate intervals, the possibility of them
catching fire as a result of a build-up of heat
such as occurs when deep-fat frying or
roasting is taking place, is reduced.
Saturation indicator:
When the grease filters reach saturation
point, an acoustic signal is sounded for 6
seconds after the fan has switched off, and
an appears in the display. The grease

filters should be cleaned straight away.
Cleaning the metal grease filters:
In normal operation (1 to 2 hours daily), the
metal grease filter must be cleaned one a
month.
The filters can be cleaned in a dish-washer.
It is however possible that they will become
slightly discoloured.
The filter must be placed loosely, and NOT
wedged, in the dishwasher.
Important:
Metal filters that are saturated with grease
should not be washed together with other
dishes etc.
When cleaning the filters by hand, soak them
in hot soapy water first of all. Do not use
aggressive, acidic or caustic cleaners.
Then brush the filters clean, rinse them
thoroughly and leave the water to drain off.
