Exchange and cleaning of the filter
Fire risk! The performance of the extractor hood is affected by containing fat remains
and therefore the fire risk increases. To prevent a fire risk please clean the metal filter
regularly. The metal grease filter must be cleaned every 2 weeks at last.
At first press therefore the stainless steel pane with both hands upwards and then
slowly down. The underlying metal grease filter is held by a magnet and can be simply
flapped down.
The metal grease filter is to be cleaned at best in a dishwasher or in hot soapy water.
Aggressive cleaners should not be used. The guarantee can´t be applied if a discol-
ouring on the filter is a result of using an aggressive dishwashing liquid. Please avoid
temperatures over 55 degrees. Attention: do not use 3-phase-cleaners or clean the
filter in a commercial dishwasher. The use of aggressive cleaners like fuel, acetone,
trichlorethylene destroys the filter!
Reinstate the metal filter after the cleaning and close the stainless steel pane with
both hands.
