Cleaning and care

Cleaning the grease filters by hand

￿Clean the filters with a soft nylon brush in a mild solution of hot water and a small amount of washing-up liquid.

Do not use:

cleaning agents containing descaling agents,

powder cleaners, cream cleaners or abrasive all-purpose cleaning agents,

oven sprays.

Cleaning the grease filters in the dishwasher

￿Place the filters as upright as possible in the lower basket, with the short sides upright, and wash on a 65°C programme, ensuring the spray arm is not obstructed. If a Miele dishwasher is being used, select the Sensor wash programme.

￿Use a mild dishwasher detergent.

Depending on the cleaning agent 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 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.

When putting the grease filters back in position, ensure that the locking clips are facing down towards the cooktop.

If the grease filters are inadvertently replaced upside down, insert a small screwdriver blade into the slits to disengage the clip.

￿After replacing the grease filters, press the grease filter touch control for approximately 3 seconds to re-set the operating hours counter.

The indicator lamp will go out.

If the grease filters are cleaned before the operating hours counter has reached its maximum, the grease filter touch control should be pressed for approximately 6 seconds to reset the counter.
