Glass Surface
The inlay glass panel can be cleaned using warm soapy water. Ensure the cloth is well wrung before cleaning. Use a dry soft cloth to remove any excess moisture left after cleaning.
Cleaning grease filters
The mesh filters can be cleaned either by hand or in the dishwasher. After cleaning ensure that the filters are completely dry before refitting.
By hand: Soak in warm water and some washing up liquid. For stubborn grease stains use a soft nylon brush to help remove these stains.
In a dishwasher: Ensure that placement of filters is made so as to no impede the functioning of the spray arm. Washing the filters in a dishwasher may cause discolouration of the filters although it will not affect their performance.
