Cleaning and care
21
Important for the controls
Do not leave soiling on the controls
for any length of time.
Otherwise they may suffer discolour-
ation or damage.
Remove soiling straight away.
Please 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 va-
pours, preventing soiling of the cooker
hood.
An oversaturated filter is a fire
hazard.
Cleaning interval
Grease which builds up over time will
harden and make cleaning more diffi-
cult. The grease filters should be
cleaned regularly (at least every 3 - 4
weeks) to avoid a build-up of grease.
Removing a grease filter
When handling a grease filter, be
careful not to drop it.
This can result in damage to the filter
and the hob below.
Make sure you hold the filter securely
at all times when handling it.
To take out a grease filter, release the
locking clip on the filter, lower the fil-
ter approx. 45°, unhook it at the back
and remove it.
