Cleaning and Care
Cleaning the grease filters
By hand: use a scrub brush with a solution of warm water and mild dish soap.
Do not use the pure detergent, aggressive all purpose cleaners, oven sprays, abrasive cleaning agents or limescale removers. They could damage the filter.
In a dishwasher: place the filter vertically in the lower basket, making sure that the spray arm is not blocked.
Use a wash program with a max. temperature of 150°F (65°C). In a Miele dishwasher use the "Normal" program.
Use the recommended amount of dishwasher detergent. Overuse could destroy the filter.
Depending on the detergent, cleaning the grease filters in a dishwasher may cause permanent discoloration of the filter surface. Filter performance will not be affected by this discoloration.
After cleaning, place the filters on a towel to air dry.
While the filters are removed, clean any dirt or grease from the filter casing.
When putting the grease filters back make sure that the locking clips are visibly facing the cooking surface
If the filters are incorrectly installed, insert a small screwdriver into the slit along its edge to disengage it from the casing.
