Different grease filters can be used to
absorb the grease particles in the
kitchen vapours.
Fleece grease filter:
The filter mat consists of highly flammable
material.
Warning:
A build up of greasy residue increases
flammability, and the function of the
extractor hood may be impaired.
Important:
Replace the fleece grease filter in good
time, otherwise there is a risk of fire from
the heat which accumulates during deep-
fat frying or roasting.
Replacing the fleece grease filter:
❑ During normal operation (daily 1 to 2
hours) the fleece grease filter must be
replaced every 8 to 10 weeks.
Replace printed fleece grease filters at
the latest when the coloured print
dissolves.
❑ Use only original filters.
These comply with the safety regulations
and ensure optimum function.
Disposal of the old fleece grease filter:
❑ Fleece grease filters do not contain any
harmful substances. They can be
disposed of as bio-degradable waste.
