changing the fi lter, pull out the mains
plug. If the mains plug is diffi cult to

fuse or pull it out.
Cleaning the housing
CAUTION
Fire hazard
!
Improper handling of the appliance
or incorrect maintenance can result in
grease residue catching fi re.
■
Grease residue on the exhaust hood
or in the grease fi lters can catch fi re
if exposed to high temperatures. For
this reason, clean the surfaces of the
exhaust hood and grease fi lters reg-
ularly.
We recommend cleaning the sur-
faces of the exhaust hood after
every use.
• Wipe the surfaces with a soft, damp cloth
and a little dishwashing detergent. Do not
use any sharp objects or scouring pow-
ders, as these can scratch the surface.
• Clean the glass surfaces with standard
glass cleaner.
Cleaning the grease filters

■

Only reinsert the grease fi lters after
cleaning once they are fully dry.
Clean the grease filters once a month – or
more frequently if necessary – in the dish-
washer (up to 60°C), or in warm water with
detergent.

the section ‘Switching on the appliance’
