Cleaning and Care
Cleaning the grease filters
By hand: use a scrub brush with a solution of warm water and mild dish soap.
Do not use the pure detergent, aggressive all purpose cleaners, oven sprays, abrasive cleaning agents or limescale removers. They could damage the filter.
In a dishwasher: place the filter vertically in the lower basket, making sure that the spray arm is not blocked.
Use a hot temperature program, e.g. "Heavy Soil" or "Pots and pans". Use the recommended amount of dishwasher detergent. Overuse of detergent could damage the filter.
Depending on the detergent, cleaning the grease filters in a dishwasher may cause permanent discoloration of the filter surface. Filter performance will not be affected by this discoloration.
After cleaning, place the filters on a towel to air dry.
While the filters are removed, clean any dirt or grease from the filter casing.
Place the filters in the bottom of the vent. Press them downwards at the edge so that they clip into the frame at the top.
Press the 0/1 button to turn the appliance on.
If the retractable vent does not work after the cleaned filters have been replaced:
Press the grease filters firmly into position again.
There is a switch at the top, behind the grease filters. It prevents the ventilation system from being turned on when the grease filters are not in place.
