ATTENTION! Before performing any main-
tenance operation, isolate the hood from
the electrical supply by switching off at
the connector and removing the connec-
tor fuse.
Or if the appliance has been connected
through a plug and socket, then the plug
must be removed from the socket.
Grease Filter
Metal lters are used to trap the greasy
element of the vapours that develop during
cooking.
The lter mats are made from non combus-
tible metal.
Caution:
As the lter becomes more and more satu-
rated with grease, not only does the risk of
it catching re increase but the efciency of
the extractor hood can also be adversely
affected.
Important:
By cleaning the metal grease lters at
appropriate intervals, the possibility of them
catching re as a result of a build-up of heat
such as occurs when deep-fat frying or roast-
ing is taking place, is reduced.
Cleaning the metal grease lters:
■ In normal operation (1 to 2 hours daily),
the metal grease lter must be cleaned
after 8 to 10 weeks.
■ The lters can be cleaned in a dishwash-
er. It is however possible that they will
become slightly discoloured.
■ The lter must be placed loosely, and
NOT wedged, in the dishwasher.
Important: Metal lters that are saturated
with grease should not be washed togeth-
er with other dishes etc.
■ When cleaning the lters by hand, soak
them in hot soapy water rst of all. Then
brush the lters clean, rinse them thor-
oughly and leave the water to drain off.
Removing and inserting the metal grease
lters:
1. Press the catch on the grease lters
inwards and fold the lters down.
2. Clean the lters.
3. Insert the clean lters back into the hood.
