NOTE:
We recommend to also check the hygienic exhaust filter on this
occasion (

clean both filters simultaneously if necessary.
ATTENTION:
The filters are washable, but not suitable for cleaning in washing
machines or dishwashers. Do not use chemical cleansers to clean the
filter. Leave the filters to dry after cleaning them with water
(approx. 24 hours at room temperature, Abb. 12/A). Only put them back
into the appliance when they are completely dry.
