Clean the grease filters
– by hand:
with a scrubbing brush
in hot water with a mild detergent.
– in a dishwasher:
place the
grease filters with the short side up-
right in the lower basket.
Depending on the detergent used,
cleaning the grease filters in a dish-
washer may cause discolouration of
the filter surface.
This has no detrimental effect on fil-
ter performance.
After cleaning, leave the filters to dry
for a while on an absorbent surface.
When removing the filters for clean-
ing, also clean off any residues of
grease or fat from the filter casing to
prevent the risk of these catching fire.
When putting the grease filters back
in position, ensure that the catches
face towards the hob.
Should the grease be put back up-
side down:
Insert a small screwdriver into the
slits to disengage the filters.
Having reinserted the grease filters,
press the grease filter switch for ap-
prox. 4 seconds to re-set the opera-
ting hour counter to the time pre-
viously selected when the filter was
last used.
