Water tank
There is a water tank located under the hood.
It collects the condensation created during
each cooking process. Remember to empty
the water tank regularly.
Before you open the water tank, place a

The 2-in-1 long life carbon filter combines
the filtration of grease and odour in one unit.
The filter consists of two elements located on
the left and right side of the filter housing.
Each element is made up of the grease filter
and the long life carbon filter. The grease
