4 - MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING Regular maintenance and cleaning wil ensure good performance and reliability, while extending the working-life of the hood. Special attention should be reserved to the grease filter and to the charcoal filter (recycling mode).

This retains the solid grease particles and can be supplied in different types. lt is fitted onto the reverse side of the metal grile panel. Maintenance of the grease filter varies according to the used type. a-Whatever type of filters used, the filter is easily removed from the grile by pushing the metal wire clips to one side and removing. b-Thin synthetic filter (1 mm thick). It should not be washed and should be replaced every two months. If the filter is provided with a saturation indicator, replace when: b.1-The violet colour of the dots, which are visible through the metal grile, is spread over the whole surface of the filter. b.2-The red colour of the stripes, which is not visible through the metal grile when the filter is clean, becomes visible from the outside of the metal grile. c-Multi-layer metal filter. It should be washed once a month in hot water using mild detergent or liquid soap. It can be washed in a dishwasher. It should not be bent and should be left to drain dry. WARNING: An excess of grease in the filter not only would affect the performance of the hood, but it is also a possible fire risk. We strongly recommend therefore to clean and replace filters in accordance with the manufacturer instructions.
