5 Cleaning and care

Cleaning the metal grease fi lters
Clean the metal grease fi lters in the dishwasher or in
mild soapy water at least once a month or in the event of
excessive grease deposits and/or intensive use.
To remove the fi lter, lift up the fan cover and lift the U-sha-
ped stainless steel ventilation plate in the suction intake
opening upwards to remove it from the fan. Now remove
the fi lter. To do so, press the lock in the recessed handle
downwards and remove the fi lter.
The fi lter can be rinsed in a dishwasher. Stand the fi lter
upright in the dishwasher. Please use only rinse aid that is
suitable for use with aluminium in order to avoid damaging
and discolouring the fi lters.
Never rinse right next to glasses or light-coloured porce-
lain.
Do not operate the fan without grease fi lters!
After rinsing the fi lter, dry it and replace it in the fan. Please
make sure that the recessed handle is visible after you
have replaced the fi lter. If possible, wipe the easily acces-
sible inside of the fan with a cloth dampened with deter-
gent every time you replace a fi lter, while at the same time
paying attention to protruding parts in the inside of the fan.
Fan cleaning and care

Cleaning and care
The fan is best cleaned every time you clean the fi lters.
Condensation water may collect under the fi lter after water
has boiled rapidly with the lid of the pot removed. This is
quite normal. The water should, however, be removed and
the inside of the extraction housing cleaned.
The ventilation openings in the cover ensure that residual
moisture resulting from cooking and cleaning can escape
if necessary when the fan is not in operation and the cover
is on.
Please clean the fi lter and the inside of the fan if unplea-
sant remaining odours escape.
The fan is best cleaned with a soft damp cloth and mild
soapy water.
Service
The fi lter must remain accessible. Replace the charcoal
fi lter mats of a charcoal fi lter every 5 to 24 months.
