This must be cleaned once a month using non aggressive detergents, either by
hand or in the dishwasher, which must be set to a low temperature and a short

Maintenance of the charcoal filter

The saturation of the activated charcoal occurs after more or less prolonged use,
depending on the type of cooking and the regularity of cleaning of the grease
filter.
In any case it is necessary to replace the cartridge at least every four mounths.
The carbon filter may NOT be washed or regenerated.
