Cleaning and care
Pull the front edge of the panels down slightly, unhook them at the back, and take them out.
Open the grease filter lock, lower the grease filter slightly, unhook it at the back, and remove.
Cleaning the panels by hand
Follow the instructions under "Cleaning the casing".
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 panels and the filters are removed, clean any dirt or grease from the casing. This reduces the risk of fire.
When reinstalling the grease filters, make sure that the locking clips are facing down.
