METAL ANTI-GREASE FILTERS
The metal anti-grease filters are there to contain suspended grease particles: deposited on the filters, these feed on any flames released
when cooking, generate unpleasant odours, and compromise the passage of air, thus reducing suction performance of the hood. For this
reason, it is advised to frequently wash the metal filters (at least once a month) leaving them to soak in boiling water and dish washing
liquid for 1 hour, taking care not to bend them. Do not use corrosive, acid or alkaline detergents. Rinse them well and wait for them to be
completely dry before reassembling them.
Washing in a dishwasher is permitted, however, it may cause the filter material to darken: to reduce the possibility of this problem from
happening, use low-temperature washes (55°C max.).
Use the handle to take out the metal anti-grease filters (see instructions
ACTIVE CARBON FILTERS
Active carbon filters have the function of retaining odours in the air flow passing through them. The air, purified by running many times
through the filter, is recirculated into the kitchen.
Active carbon filters cannot be washed and are to be immediately replaced every 3-4 months (depending on the frequency of use of
the hood).
Dispose of the active carbon filters in compliance with the regulations in force in the country of use.
