Cleaning the grease filters in the
dishwasher
 Place the filters as upright or inclined
as possible in the lower basket. En‐
sure that the spray arm is not ob‐
structed.
 Use a common household dishwash‐
er detergent.
 Select a program with a wash tem‐
perature between 122°F (50°C) and
149°F (65°C). In a Miele dishwasher
use the "Normal" program.
Depending on the detergent used,
cleaning the filters in a dishwasher
may cause the inside filter surfaces to
become discolored. However, this will
not affect the functioning of the filters
in any way.
After cleaning
 After cleaning, leave the filters on an
absorbent surface to dry.
 When removing the filters for clean‐
ing, also clean off any accessible oil
or fat buildup from the housing. Do‐
ing so will prevent a fire hazard.
 Reinstall the grease filters. When in‐
serting the filters, make sure that the
locking clip is facing down.
