Cleaning the grease filters
Clean the filter every month or every other month according
to how much the hood is used. The cleaner the filters, the
better it collects grease. Remove the filter by (Fig. 2):
Push the handle towards the rear of the hood (a).b
Pull the filter down at the front and remove it forwards
(b).
The filter is made of aluminium wires on which the grease
collects. Clean the filter in hot water using a detergent, or inFig. 2
a dishwasher. Let the filter dry before putting it back. Note
that a dishwasher may discolour the filter.
Cleaning/replacing the carbon filter
Only applicable for recirculation. The carbon filters absorb
smells and odours.
Unlike other carbon filters, the TYPE 23 carbon filter can be
cleaned and reactivated. At normal use the filter should be
cleaned every second month. The best way to clean the filter
is in the dishwasher. Use normal detergent and choose the
highest temperature (65o C). Wash the filter separately so that
no food parts gets stuck on the filter and later causes bad odours.
To reactivate the carbon, the filter should be dried in an oven
for 10 minutes with a temperature of maximum 100oC.
After approximately three years of use, the TYPE 23 filter
should be replaced with a new, as the odour reduction capacity
will be reduced.
