2. The Re-circulation Mode (fig 2.)
When there is no easy access to an outside wall, the extractor can easily be adapted to clean air,
polluted by cooking smells, by the use of a charcoal filter. This can be purchased from the Baumatic
Spares Department under reference CFM1. Remember that the appliance cannot be used in
re-circulation mode without the use of a charcoal filter.
The Charcoal Filter
Filters do have a limited life. We advise you to change them when there is a noticeable drop in
performance. The intervals between changing the filters will depend entirely upon the amount of
cooking you do, but on average they will last about 6 months. To fit the new filter, remove the fascia
grill by pressing down the two clips towards the face of the grill, it will disengage. Then simply locate
the charcoal filter on the two lugs on the motor and turn in an clockwise direction. To remove the
charcoal filter repeat the process but in an anti-clockwise direction.
The Grease Filter
The grease filter is made of a metallic material and can be cleaned in hot soapy water. It is important
to clean the grease filter on a regular basis. To remove the filter mat simply remove the facia grille and
then unclip the two wire retainers which hold the filter mat in place. Clean the filter and then replace
securing with wire retainers.
IMPORTANT:
You should never attempt to use the extractor without the grease filter since a grease build-up could
prevent the motor working properly and create a fire hazard. If the filter is not cleaned regularly, the
risk of fire will be increased.
Always switch off the electricity supply before cleaning or changing the filters.
