Cleaning and care
28
Important for appliances with
stainless st
eel surfaces
(This information does not apply to the
contr
ols).
 S
tainless steel surfaces can be
cleaned with a proprietary non-
abrasive cleaning agent designed
specifically for use on stainless steel.
 T
o help prevent re-soiling, a
proprietary conditioning agent for
stainless steel (available from Miele)
can also be used. Follow the
manufacturer’s instructions on the
packaging.
Important for the controls
Do not leave soiling on the controls
for any length of time.
Otherwise they may suffer
discol
ouration or damage.
Remove soiling straight away.
 Please
observe the general notes on
cleaning earlier in this section.
Do not use stainless steel cleaning
ag
ents on the controls.
Grease filters and edge
e
xtraction panels
The edge extraction panels and 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.
 An oversatur
ated filter is a fire
hazard.
Cleaning interval
Grease which builds up on the edge
e
xtraction panels and grease filters can
harden over a long period of time and
make cleaning more difficult. For this
reason we recommend cleaning the
panels and grease filters every 3–4
weeks.
The operating hours counter will remind
you t
o clean the edge extraction panels
and the grease filters regularly via the
grease filter symbol  which will light
up.
 Y
ou can set the operating hours
counter to suit the type of cooking
you do (see "Operation").
