6 Cleaning and care
• Switch the hob off and let it cool down before you
clean it.
• Never clean the glass ceramic hob with a steam
cleaner or similar appliance!
• When cleaning make sure that you only wipe lightly
over the ON/OFF key. The hob may otherwise be
accidentally switched on!
• DO NOT put the black grille into the dishwasher, it
will affect the finish.
6.1 Glass ceramic hob
Important!
Never use aggressive cleaning agents such
as rough scouring agent, abrasive saucepan cleaners,
rust and stain removers etc.
Cleaning after use
1. Always clean the entire hob when it has become
soiled. It is recommended that you do so every time
the hob is used. Use a damp cloth and a little washing
up liquid for cleaning. Then dry the hob with a clean
dry cloth to ensure that there is no detergent left on
the surface of the hob.
6.2 Grease filters
Cleaning the metal grease filters
Clean the metal grease filters in the dishwasher or in
mild soapy water at least once a month or in the event of
excessive grease deposits and/or intensive use.
To remove the filter, lift up the fan cover and lift the
U-shaped stainless steel ventilation plate in the suction
intake opening upwards to remove it from the fan. Now
remove the filter. To do so, press the lock in the recessed
handle downwards and remove the filter.
The filter can be rinsed in a dishwasher. Stand the filter
upright in the dishwasher. Please use only rinse aid
that is suitable for use with aluminium in order to avoid
damaging and discolouring the filters.
Never rinse right next to glasses or light-coloured
porcelain.
Do not operate the fan without grease filters!
After rinsing the filter, dry it and replace it in the fan.
Please make sure that the recessed handle is visible
after you have replaced the filter. If possible, wipe the
easily accessible inside of the fan with a cloth dampened
with detergent every time you replace a filter, while at
the same time paying attention to protruding parts in
the inside of the fan.
Fan cleaning and care
The fan is best cleaned every time you clean the grease
filters and change the carbon filters.
Condensation water may collect under the filter after
water has boiled rapidly with the lid of the pot removed.
This is quite normal. The water should, however, be
removed and the inside of the fan cleaned.
The ventilation openings in the cover ensure that
residual moisture resulting from cooking and cleaning
can escape if necessary when the fan is not in operation
and the cover is on.
Please clean the filter and the inside of the fan if
unpleasant remaining odours escape.
The fan is best cleaned with a soft damp cloth and mild
soapy water.
Service
The filter must remain accessible. Replace the
carbon filter depending on use every 5 to 24 months.
Replacement filters are available, quote ref
