Grease filters
The reusable metal grease filters in the
appliance r
emove the solid particles
contained in kitchen vapors (fat, dust,
etc.), thereby preventing the ventilation
hood from becoming dirty.
A
dirty filter is a fire hazard!
Cleaning intervals
Over longer periods of time, fat buildup
on the gr
ease filter hardens and makes
cleaning more difficult. Therefore, we
recommend cleaning the grease filters
once every 3-4 weeks.
By illuminating the grease filter symbol,
the filt
er saturation counter reminds
you to regularly clean the grease filters.
Y
ou can adjust the interval of the filter
saturation counter to match your
cooking habits (see "Operation").
Removing the grease filters
When handling a grease filter, be
car
eful not to drop it.
This can result in damage to the filter
and t
o the cooktop.
Make sure you hold the filter
secu
rely at all times when handling
it.
