^ To take out the grease filters, release
the locking clip on the filter, lower the
filter 45°, unhook it at the back and
remove it.
To avoid damaging the filters or the
cooktop below, make sure you hold
the filters securely at all times when
handling them.
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 undiluted washing-up
liquid.
Do not use:
– cleaning agents containing
descaling agents,
– powder cleaners, cream cleaners or
abrasive all-purpose cleaning
agents,
– oven sprays.
Cleaning and care
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 a grease filter is inadvertently
replaced upside down, insert a small
screwdriver blade into the slit to
disengage the clip.
