Cleaning the panels by hand
Follow the instructions under
"Housing."
Cleaning the grease filters by hand
Clean the filters with a soft nylon
brush in a mild solution of hot water
and dish soap. Do not use undiluted
dish soap.
Unsuitable cleaning agents
Unsuitable cleaners can cause damage
to the filter surfaces if used regularly.
Do not use any of the following:
- Lime removers
- Abrasive powders or abrasive liquids
- Aggressive all-purpose cleaners and
degreaser sprays
- Oven sprays
Cleaning the panels and grease
filters in the dishwasher
Place the panels and filters as upright
or inclined as possible in the lower
basket. Ensure that the spray arm is
not obstructed.
Use a household dishwasher
detergent.
Select a program with a wash
temperature between 122°F (50°C)
and 149°F (65°C).
Depending on the detergent used,
cleaning the filters in a dishwasher
may cause the inside filter surfaces to
become discolored. However, this will
not affect the functioning of the filters
in any way.
Cleaning and care
After cleaning
After cleaning, leave the filters on an
absorbent surface to dry.
When removing the panels and
grease filters for cleaning, also clean
off any accessible oil or grease
buildup from the housing. Doing so
will prevent a fire hazard.
Reinstall the grease filters. When
inserting the filters, make sure that
the locking clip is facing down.
If the filters have been installed
incorrectly, you can insert a small
screwdriver into the slit to disengage
the locking clip.
Hook the panels onto the support
rod.
Lift up the front of the panels and
push them into the lock until they
engage.
