The Grease Filter is an OEM part for Bosch microwaves. It functions to catch and contain any splatters or grease that may result from cooking foods with high fat or oil content in the microwave. This helps keep the microwave interior clean and protects components from residue buildup.
Causes of a bad grease filter can include damage or wear over frequent use and cleaning cycles. Failing to replace filters at recommended intervals can also cause them to become excessively dirty or clogged.
Symptoms of needing a new grease filter include:
- Grease splatters accumulating inside the microwave rather than being caught by the filter
- Unpleasant burnt or smoky smells generated during cooking
- Reduced cooking power or effectiveness due to blocked ventilation
This genuine OEM Bosch part is also compatible with Thermador, Gaggenau and select Kenmore models.

Very simple fix. Just replaced the bulb following the directions in the Microwave users manual. Took approximately 15 minutes. The instructions in the Bosch manual were good.
