MAINTENANCE
Cleaning the grid, grease filter and internal recirculation filters
Attention; there are different models that do not have internal recirculation filters (see
'Maintenance / Cleaning the grid and grease filter').
1. Remove the grid from the extraction inlet.
2. Carefully pull the grease filter out of the extraction inlet.
•
Clean the grid with hot water and neutral soap, without using abrasive sponges (do not use
detergents!). Do not wash the cast iron grid in a dishwasher.
•
Clean the grease filter at least every 2 months (or when the filter saturation indication
system indicates this necessity. This will maintain good performance of the extractor and
prevent a potential fire hazard, caused by excessive grease build-up.
•
Clean the filter with a non-aggressive detergent, preferably by hand, or in the dishwasher,
which must be set to a low temperature and a short cycle.
Internal recirculation filters
•
These recirculation filters are regenerable and require periodic maintenance.
•
The recirculation filters should be washed every 3 to 4 months without detergent. After a
maximum of 8 maintenance times, the filters should be replaced.
•
The recirculation filters can be washed in the sink with hot water or can be placed in the
dishwasher on a fast wash cycle, without any other dishes (to avoid the presence of fats or
oils) and at a recommended temperature of up to 70 °C.
•
The recirculation filters can be dried in an oven with top and bottom heat at a temperature
of up to 70 °C for 2 hours.
