Unhook the security chain by opening the
shackle, then lift the grid upward.
Remove the lters one by one.
Any kind of bending of the lters has to be
avoided when washing them. Before tting
them again into the hood make sure that they
are completely dry. (The colour of the lter sur-
face may change throughout the time but this
has no inuence to the lter efciency).
Put the clean lters back on the Grid in its place
Hook the security chain and put back the Grid
onto the hood.
Reset of the alarm signal
 Switch off the hood and the lighting.
 Press the E-key until the display is unlit.
Grease lters:
Metal-mesh lters are used to trap the grease
particles in the cooking vapours.
The lter mats are made from noncombustible
metal.
Caution:
As the lter becomes more and more saturated with
grease, there is an increased risk of re and the
function of the extractor hood may be impaired.
Important:
By cleaning the metal grease lters at appropriate
intervals, the possibility of them catching re as a re-
sult of a build-up of heat such as occurs when deep-
fat frying or roasting is taking place, is reduced.
Filters can be washed in the dish machine. They
need to be washed when F-sign appears on the
display or in any case every month, or even more
frequently in case of particularly intensive use of the
hood.
Removing and inserting metal self- supporting
grease lters
First unhook the lter-holding Grid by acting on
the special Handles.
