Cleaning the grease filters
Clean the filter every month or every other month according to how much the hood is used. The cleaner the filters, the better it collects grease. Remove the filter by (see picture): 1. Grab hold of the handle and push the filter backwards. 2. Pulling the filter down at the front and removing it forwards. The filter is made of aluminium wires on which the grease collects. Clean the filter in hot water using a detergent, or in a dishwasher. Let the filter dry before putting it back. Note that a dishwasher may discolour the filter.
Before doing any maintenance work on the hood, disconnect it from the main supply by disconnecting the plug from the wall socket or unscrewing the fuse.
