Cleaning and care

Important for appliances with lacquered housing

(special finish)

It is very difficult to clean this type of surface without causing minor marks to the surface material. This can become particularly noticeable with darker colours and if there is halogen lighting in the kitchen.

Controls

The controls may suffer discolouration or damage if soiling is left on them for too long. Remove soiling straight away.

Observe the General notes on cleaning earlier in this section.

Do not use stainless steel cleaning agents on the controls.

Glass surfaces

￿Glass surfaces can be cleaned using a proprietary non-abrasive cleaning agent designed specifically for use on glass.

Do not use:

–abrasive cleaning agents, e.g. powder cleaners and cream cleaners,

–abrasive sponges, e.g. pot scourers or sponges which have been previously used with abrasive cleaning agents,

–oven sprays.

Grease filter

The re-usable metal grease filter in the appliance removes solid particles from the kitchen vapours (grease, dust, etc), preventing soiling of the cooker hood.

The grease filter should be cleaned regularly (at least every 3-4 weeks) to avoid a built-up of fat, but always clean immediately if the operating hours control indicator lamp lights up red.

￿An oversaturated filter is a fire hazard.

￿To take out the grease filter, release the locking clip on the filter, lower the filter 45°, unhook it at the back and remove it.

To avoid damaging the filter or the hob below, make sure you hold the filter securely at all times when handling it.
