Cleaning and care
Cleaning the grease filters
^By hand: use a scrub brush with a solution of warm water and mild detergent.
Do not use the pure detergent, aggressive all purpose cleaners, oven sprays, abrasive cleaning agents or limescale removers. They could destroy 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 could destroy the filter.
Depending on the detergent, cleaning the grease filter in a dishwasher may cause permanent discoloration of the filter surface. Performance of the filter will not be affected by this discoloration.
^After cleaning, the filters can be placed on a towel to air dry.
^While the filters are removed, clean any dirt or grease from the interior casing to prevent the risk of fire.
^When putting the grease filter back make sure that the locking clip is facing the cooking surface.
^If the filter is incorrectly installed, insert a small screwdriver into the slit along its edge to disengage it from the casing.
After cleaning and returning the grease filters the timer must be reset.
^While the fan is on, press and hold the grease filter control until only the first
^The second grease filters must also be reset in the same way, even if the timer has not yet reached its maximum.
