Cleaning and care
Cleaning the grease filter in a
dishwasher
Place the grease filter upright or
slightly inclined in the lower basket.
Ensure the spray arm is not
obstructed.
Use a commercially available
household dishwasher detergent.
Select a dishwasher programme with
a wash temperature between 50 °C
and 65 °C.
Depending on the detergent used,
cleaning the grease filter in a
dishwasher can cause permanent
discolouration to the internal surfaces
of the filter. However, this will not
affect the functioning of the grease
filter in any way.
After cleaning
After cleaning, leave the filter to dry
on an absorbent surface before
replacing it.
When removing the panel and grease
filter for cleaning, also clean off any
residues of oil or fat from the now
accessible parts of the casing to
prevent the risk of these catching fire.
