a. Slide the filter elements inside the
filter housing along the built-in
runners. Make sure that the black
sides are facing inwards and the
silver sides are facing out. After
reassembling you should be able to
see the black side inside the cavity.
b. Place the filter housing back inside
the hood cavity.
Cleaning the filter housing
Wash the filter housing manually using a mild
detergent and a soft cloth. You can also wash
it in the dishwasher.
Cleaning the filter
1. Wash the filter in warm water without any
cleaning agents. Detergents can damage
the odour filtration. You can use a soft
sponge, a soft cloth, or a non-abrasive
cleaning brush to remove food remains, if
necessary. You can also wash the filter in
a dishwasher at 65-70 °C (using a
program longer than 90 min), without
detergents and without dishes in the
same load.
2. Dry the filter in the oven for 20-30 min at
70 °C. Place the filter on the middle wire
shelf. Make sure to use a non-fan oven
function. Alternatively, you can leave the
filter to dry overnight at room
temperature. The filter needs to be fully
dried before reassembly.
3. Reassemble the filtering unit and put it
back inside the hood cavity.
Regenerating the filter
1. Clean the filter first, as described above
in step 1.
2. Put the filter in the oven set to 80-110 °C
for 60 min. Place the filter on the middle
wire shelf. Use a non-fan oven function.
3. Reassemble the filtering unit and put it
back inside the hood cavity.
4. Press briefly to reset the counter.
The counter restarts.
