Filters and maintenance

Metal filters are used to trap the greasy

element of the vapours that develop

The filter mats are made from non-

As the filter becomes more and more

saturated with grease, not only does the

risk of it catching fire increase but the

efficiency of the extractor hood can also be

By cleaning the metal grease filters at

appropriate intervals, the possibility of them

catching fire as a result of a build-up of heat

such as occurs when deep-fat frying or

roasting is taking place, is reduced.

Cleaning the metal grease filters:

❑ In normal operation (1 to 2 hours daily),

the metal grease filter must be cleaned

after 8 to 10 weeks.

❑ The filters can be cleaned in a dish-

washer. It is however possible that they

will become slightly discoloured.

❑ The filter must be placed loosely, and

NOT wedged, in the dishwasher.

Metal filters that are saturated with

grease should not be washed together

with other dishes etc.

❑ When cleaning the filters by hand, soak

them in hot soapy water first of all.

Then brush the filters clean, rinse them

thoroughly and leave the water to drain off.

 The most effective method of removing

vapours produced during cooking is to:

❑ Switch the ventilator ON

as soon as you begin cooking.

❑ Switch the ventilator OFF

a few minutes after you have finished

❑ Slide the right slide switch to the desired

❑ The light can be switched on at any

time, even though the fan is switched off.

Removing and inserting the metal grease

1. Press the catch on the grease filters

inwards and fold the filters down.

3. Insert the grease filters (see removal and

installation of the metal-mesh grease

The filters are removed in reverse

Replacing the activated carbon filters:

❑ During normal operation (1 to 2 hours

per day) the activated carbon filters

should be replaced approximately 1 x

❑ The activated carbon filters are available

from specialist outlets (see Optional

❑ Use only original filters.

Inserting the filter:

1. Remove the metal filters (see "Removing

and inserting the metal grease filters").

2. Insert an activated carbon filter on the

right and left of the fan motor and rotate

the filters until they lock into position.

Activated carbon filter:

As the filter becomes more and more

saturated with grease, there is an increased

risk of fire and the function of the extractor

hood may be impaired.

Change the activated carbon filter promptly

to prevent the risk of fire from the

accumulation of heat when deep-fat frying

Replacing the light bulbs

1. Switch off the extractor hood and pull

out the mains plug or switch off the

electricity supply at the fuse box.

2. Remove the grease filters (see Filters and

3. Press down the bulb cover and

disconnect from the light strip.

4. Replace the bulb (standard filament bulb,

max 40 W, E14 bulb holder).

5. Attach the lamp cover again.

6. Re-insert the grease filters.

7. Plug the appliance into the mains or

switch it on at the fuse box.

Disconnect the extractor hood from the

electricity supply by pulling out the

mains plug or switching it off at the fuse

❑ At the same time as you clean the

grease filters, clean off any grease from

all accessible parts of the housing. This

significantly reduces the fire hazard and

ensures that the extractor hood

performs as effectively as possible.

on but loosen it up with a damp cloth.

❑ Do not use abrasive cleaning agents or

sponges that could cause scratches.

plastic parts, otherwise the surface may

become matt in appearance.

Caution: Ensure that the kitchen is ade-

quately ventilated. Avoid naked flames!

❑ Use a mild non-abrasive stainless steel

❑ Clean the surface in the same direction

as it has been ground and polished.
