Cleaning And Care; Housing; Grease Filters - Miele DA 200 Operating Instructions Manual

Cleaning and Care

Before any cleaning or maintenance
work the cooker hood must be dis-
connected from the mains supply
by
– withdrawing the fuse from the
fused spur connection unit (if
accessible), or
– withdrawing the mains fuse, or
– removing the screw-out fuse (in
countries where this is applicable).

Housing

The cooker hood housing may be
cleaned using hot water to which a little
mild detergent has been added. Dry
with a soft cloth.
Never use a cleaner which scours
or contains chlorine, acids or soda.
These would damage the surface of
the cooker hood.
A mild, non-abrasive proprietary stain-
less steel cleaner is suitable.

Grease filters

Re-usable metal grease filters are fitted
which remove solid particles (oil, dust,
etc.) from the kitchen vapours, prevent-
ing soiling of the cooker hood.
The grease filters should be cleaned
regularly, but always clean immediately
the grease filter touch control lamp
comes on.
Cleaning and Care
An over-greasy filter is a fire hazard.
To remove a grease filter press the
hand hold catch towards the middle
of the filter.
Remove the filter.
Clean the filters
– by hand: with a scrubbing brush in
hot water with detergent.
– in a dishwasher: place the filters
with the short side upright in the
lower basket, ensuring the spray
arm is not obstructed.
After cleaning leave the filters to dry
for a while on an absorbent surface
before putting them back in place.
When removing the filters for clean-
ing also clean off any residues of oil
or fat from the now accessible hous-
ing to prevent the risk of these catch-
ing fire.
When putting the grease filters back
ensure that the handhold catches
face towards the hob.
Should the grease filters be put back
upside down, insert a small screw-
driver into the slits to disengage
them. Do not let them drop on to the
hob below.
