How do I clean the grease filter on my OPERA CAMPO PALMA wall hood?

[JudeAnn]

Keeping your OPERA CAMPO PALMA wall hood operating efficiently involves regular cleaning of the grease filter. Here's how to do it properly:

1. For models with a glass pane (Perimeter Extraction): Begin by lifting the small front glass pane upwards to access the filter.
2. Remove the filter: Carefully detach the metal grease filter. It's usually held in place with magnets.
3. Cleaning the filter: You can clean the metal grease filter in your dishwasher or by hand with hot, soapy water. Avoid using harsh or abrasive cleaning agents.
4. Dishwasher Do's and Don'ts: When using a dishwasher, do not wash the grease filter with silver cutlery to prevent potential damage to the filter.
5. Reinstall the filter: Once clean and dry, put the metal filter back in place, following the reverse order of removal.
6. Edge extraction models: If your hood has edge extraction, secure the panel back into its original position by guiding it upwards until you hear a click.

Regular cleaning of the grease filter is crucial for the optimal performance and safety of your OPERA extractor hood, as it helps to prevent fire hazards.
