MAINTENANCE
Grease filter
It captures grease particles deriving from cooking.
It shall be cleaned once a month (or when the filter satura-
tion indicator - in case your model is equipped with this fe-
ature- displays that it is necessary), with mild detergent, by
washing it by hand or in the dishwasher at low temperature
and with a short cycle.
The metal grease filter may fade if washed in the dishwa-
sher, but its filtering characteristics will remain unchanged.
Activated charcoal filter (Filtering Version only)
It captures unpleasant odours deriving from cooking.
The charcoal filter saturation depends on the usage, on the
cooking style and on how often the grease filter is cleaned.
In any case, the filter shall be replaced at least every four
months.
After removing the grease filters, it is possible to fit the char-
coal filters (Fig. 8).
