Cleaning and care
21
Important for the controls
Do not leave soiling on the controls
for any length of time.
Otherwise they may suffer
discolouration or damage.
Remove any soiling immediately.
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
vapours, preventing soiling of the
rangehood.
The grease filters must be cleaned at
regular intervals.
Heavily soiled grease filters hinder air
extraction and will lead to increased
levels of soiling in the rangehood and
in the kitchen.
Fire hazard!
Oversaturated grease filters are a fire
hazard.
Clean the grease filters at regular
intervals.
Grease filter cleaning intervals
Accumulated grease solidifies over a
longer period of time and makes
cleaning more difficult. The grease
filters should therefore be cleaned every
3 to 4 weeks.
Removing the grease filter
When handling the grease filter,
be careful not to drop it.
This can result in damage to the filter
and the cooktop below.
Make sure you hold the filter securely
at all times when handling it.
