MAINTENANCE CLEANING OF GREASE FILTERS The metallic grease filters are used to trap the grease that in normal use is contained in the kitchen vapours/fumes, thereby avoiding the deterioration of the motor. For washing by hand, use hot water and soap; this can be done by hand brushing vigorously several times and then rinsing under the tap. After washing, the grease filters should be dried and re-fitted correctly. [. . . ] If the filter is remounted before 2 hours the hood can be damaged by remains of hot carbon. The process of regeneration can cause a light change in the colour of the filter cassette. The use of harsh abrasive or granular products, petrol, spirits or similar products which could damage the surface of the materiall, is severely forbidden. The manufacturer will not be responsible for any damages either functional or to the appearance of the hood, caused by cleaning operations carried out using unsuitable products or unsuitable methods.
