Grease Filters - Miele DA 396-5 Operating And Installation Instructions

Cleaning and care
Important for appliances with
stainless steel housing
(This infomation does not apply to the
controls).
^ Stainless steel surfaces can be
cleaned using the Original Miele all
purpose microfibre cloth or with a
suitable, non-abrasive, proprietary
cleaning agent for stainless steel,
following the manufacturer's
instructions on the packaging.
^ To help prevent re-soiling, a
conditioning agent for stainless steel
can also be used. Follow the
manufacturer's instructions on the
packaging.
Important for appliances with
lacquered housing
(Special order finish)
It is very difficult to clean this type of
surface without causing minor marks to
the surface material. This can become
particularly noticeable with darker
colours and if there is halogen lighting
in the kitchen.
Controls
The controls may suffer
discolouration or damage if soiling is
left on them for too long.
Remove soiling straight away.
^ Observe the "General notes" on
cleaning earlier in this section.
Do not use stainless steel cleaning
agents on the controls.

Grease filters

The re-usable metal grease filters in the
appliance remove solid particles
(grease, dust, etc.) from the kitchen
vapours, preventing soiling of the
rangehood.
The grease filters should be cleaned
regularly (at least every 3-4 weeks) to
avoid a build-up of grease.
,
An oversaturated filter is a fire
hazard.
^ To take out the grease filters, release
the locking clip on the filters, lower
the filters 45°, unhook them at the
back and remove them.
To avoid damaging the filters or the
cooktop below, make sure you hold
the filters securely at all times when
handling them.
