Cleaning the grease filters and panels in the dishwasher
Place the filters and panels as upright as possible in the lower basket, with the short sides upright. Make sure that the spray arm can move freely.
Select a programme with a maximum temperature of 65° C. If a Miele dishwasher is being used, select the Sensor wash programme.
Use a mild dishwasher detergent.
Depending on the dishwasher detergent used, cleaning the filters in a dishwasher can cause permanent discolouration to the surface.
However, this will not affect the functioning of the filters in any way.
After cleaning, leave the filters to dry on an absorbent surface before replacing them.
When removing the panels and grease filters for cleaning, also clean off any residues of oil or fat from the now accessible housing to prevent the risk of these catching fire.
Replace the grease filters, making sure that the locking clips are facing down towards the hob.
If a grease filter is inadvertently replaced upside down, insert a small screwdriver blade into the slit to disengage the clip.
