Metal grease filter:
The filter mats consist of non-flammable
material.
Warning:
A build up of greasy residue increases
flammability, and the function of the
extractor hood may be impaired.
Important:
Replace the metal grease filter in good time,
otherwise there is a risk of fire from the heat
which accumulates during deep-fat frying or
roasting.
Cleaning the metal grease filter:
❑ During normal operation (daily 1 to 2
hours) the metal grease filter must be
replaced every 8 to 10 weeks.
❑ The metal grease filter can be cleaned in
the dishwasher.
Slight discoloration may occur.
Important:
Do not clean heavily saturated metal
grease filters with other dishes.
❑ If cleaning by hand, soak the grease
filters in a hot soapy solution.
Then brush off any residual grease, rinse
thoroughly and leave to dry.
❑ Use only original filters.
These ensure optimum function.
