5 Maintenance and Cleaning
5.1 General Cleaning Information
General warnings
• Service life of the product extends and fre-
quently faced problems decrease if
cleaned at regular intervals.
• Disconnect the product from the electrical
connection before starting maintenance
and cleaning operations. There is an elec-
tric shock hazard!
• Some detergents or cleaning agents may
cause damage to the surface. Do not use
abrasive detergents, cleaning powders,
cleaning creams or sharp objects during
cleaning.
• Do not use steam cleaning products for
cleaning.
Product cleaning
• The product should be thoroughly cleaned
after each use. Thus, food residues are
easily cleaned and these residues are pre-
vented from burning when the product is
used again later.
• No special cleaning agent is required for
cleaning the product. Clean the product
using dishwashing detergent, warm water
and a soft cloth or sponge and dry it with
a dry cloth.
• Do not use acid or chlorine-containing
cleaning agents to clean stainless or inox
surfaces and handles. Clean with a soft
soapy cloth and liquid (non-scratching) de-
tergent, taking care to wipe in one direc-
tion.
• There are sensors in the backside of the
product's glass cover. Do not damage
these sensors during cleaning. (For model

This filter serves to retain oil particles in the
air.

tergent and reinstall after drying.
Aluminium filters may change colour as they

quire replacing your filters.
You can also wash the aluminium fil-
ter in the washing machine. (max. 70

Otherwise, you can tilt the filter.
