CLEANING THE GREASE FILTERS
If the hood is fitted with a filter indicator, it is activated after 30 hours of use. When the filter alarm is activated, the diodes above the timer function
20 min. and timer function 40 min. buttons will flash continuously. The filter alarm must be reset manually. This is done by holding the timer function
20 min. and timer function 40 min. buttons in until the diodes stop flashing.
A time-based filter indicator is intended only as a guide for when a hood's filters need cleaning, as the frequency depends greatly on the use of the hood.
This means that the grease filter must be cleaned as necessary, whether the hood is fitted with a filter indicator or not.
Thermex recommends as a minimum that the filter be cleaned at the following intervals, depending on the fat used for frying:
•
Frying margarine - filter cleaned every 3 weeks
•
Liquid margarine - filter cleaned every 2 weeks
•
Oil - filter cleaned once per week
•
Deep fat frying - filter cleaned 2-3 times per week
The grease filters are cleaned in the following way:

tion of the filter does not affect performance.
