Technical data

Important for appliances with
lacquered housing
(special order finish)
It is very difficult to clean this type of
surface without causing minor marks to
the surface material. This can become
particularly noticeable with darker
colours and if there is halogen lighting
in the kitchen.
Controls
The controls may suffer
discolouration or damage if soiling is
left on them for too long.
Remove soiling straight away.
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 cooker hood.
To avoid a build-up of grease, the
grease filters should be cleaned
regularly (at least every 3-4 weeks), but
always clean immediately the grease
filter indicator lamp comes on.
,
An oversaturated filter is a fire
hazard.
If cover panels are fitted as an optional
extra, these need to be removed first.
^
To do this, disengage them from their
catches.
^
See the notes under "Housing" for
how to clean the cover panels. Like
the grease filters, they can be
cleaned in the dishwasher.
^
To take out the grease filters, release
the locking clip on the filter, lower the
filter 45°, unhook it at the back and
remove it.
To avoid damaging the filters or the
hob below, make sure you hold the
filters securely at all times when
handling them.
