Cleaning interval
The grease filters should be cleaned
regularly (at least every 3 - 4 weeks) to
avoid a build-up of grease.
Clean them immediately if the Grease
filter operating hours symbol lights
up.
You can set the operating hours
counter for the grease filters to suit
the type of cooking you do (see
"Operation").
Removing a grease filter
The grease filter can fall out when
you are handling it.
This can result in damage to the filter
and the hob below.
Make sure you hold the filter
securely at all times when handling
it.
To take out a grease filter, release the
locking clip on the filter, lower the
filter approx. 45°, unhook it at the
back and remove it.
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 "neat" washing up
liquid.
Unsuitable cleaning agents
Unsuitable cleaning agents can cause
damage to the surface of the filter if
used regularly.
Do not use:
– cleaning agents containing descaling
agents
– powder cleaners, cream cleaners
– aggressive all-purpose cleaning
agents or spray cleaners for grease
– 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, ensuring the
spray arm is not obstructed.
Use a proprietary household
dishwasher detergent.
Select a dishwasher programme with
a wash temperature between 50°C
and 65°C.
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.
