MAINTENANCE
• The Grease filter is located immediately above the perforated plate and is held in
place by metal strips.
• The Grease filter must be washed every month in a solution of lukewarm water
and washing liquid to remove accumulated grease and fats. Allow the filter to dry
and re-fit it.
• Replace the Grease filter by a new one when washing is no longer effective.
• Replace the carbon filter by a new one when odour absorption is no longer
effective. Carbon filters can be removed by gently turning them anti-clockwise. (
as seen from the bottom ) Depending on usage the life span of Carbon filters is
approximately 2 years.
• For Gas hobs, it is recommended that the Fibre filter be replaced by an
Aluminium one.
• Replacement Carbon, Grease and Aluminium filters are available as spare parts
from DEFY SERVICE CENTRES country wide or by mail order.
• Filters will have a longer life if they are cleaned regularly.
Important: An excessively saturated filter could become a fire hazard if not
cleaned regularly
TO MAINTAIN THE EFFECTIVENESS OF THE COOKER HOOD IT IS
ESSENTIAL THAT FILTERS BE CLEANED REGULARLY AND REPLACED
BY NEW ONES WHEN NECESSARY.
