Grease filter

Fig. 10-30
Traps cooking grease particles.
This must be cleaned once a month (or when the filter satura-
tion indication system – if envisaged on the model in posses-
sion – indicates this necessity) using non aggressive deter-
gents, either by hand or in the dishwasher, which must be set
to a low temperature and a short cycle.
When washed in a dishwasher, the grease filter may discolor
slightly, but this does not affect its filtering capacity.
To remove the grease filter, pull the spring release handle.
Charcoal filter (filter version only)
Fig. 29
It absorbs unpleasant odors caused by cooking.
The activated charcoal filter can be one of these types:
• Washable activated charcoal filter.
• NON-washable activated charcoal filter.
Washable activated charcoal filter
The charcoal filter can be washed once every two months (or
when the filter saturation indication system – if envisaged on
the model in possession – indicates this necessity) using hot
water and a suitable detergent, or in a dishwasher at 65°C (if
the dishwasher is used, select the full cycle function and leave
dishes out).
Eliminate excess water without damaging the filter, then re-
move the mattress located inside the plastic frame and put it
in the oven for 10 minutes at 100° C to dry completely. Repla-
ce the mattress every 3 years and when the cloth is damaged.
NON-washable activated charcoal filter
The saturation of the charcoal filter occurs after more or less
prolonged use, depending on the type of cooking and the
regularity of cleaning of the grease filter.
In any case it is necessary to replace the cartridge at least
every four months.
The charcoal filter may NOT be washed or regenerated.
Assembly
Hook the charcoal filter at the back on the metal tongue of the
hood first, then on the front with the two knobs.
Disassembly
Remove the charcoal filter by turning the knobs fixing it to the
hood by 90°.
Replacing lamps
The hood is equipped with a lighting system based on LED
technology.
The LEDs guarantee an optimum lighting, a duration up to 10
times as long as the traditional lamps and allow to save 90%
electrical energy.
For replacement, contact the technical service.
