Cleaning the grease filters by hand
^ Clean the filters with a soft nylon
brush in a mild solution of hot water
and a little washing-up liquid.
Do not use "neat" washing-up liquid.
Do not use:
– cleaning agents containing
descaling agents,
– powder cleaners, cream cleaners or
abrasive all-purpose cleaners.
– 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. Make sure that
the spray arm can move freely.
^ Do not wash at more than 65° C. 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.
Cleaning and care
^ 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 hob.
^ If a grease filter is inadvertently
replaced upside down, insert a small
screwdriver blade into the slit to
disengage the clip.
^ After replacing the grease filters,
press the grease filter control for
approx. 3 seconds to reset the
operating hours counter.
The indicator lamp will go out.
If the grease filters are cleaned before
the operating hours counter has
reached its maximum, the grease filter
control should be pressed for approx. 6
seconds to reset the counter.
