 To remove a grease filter, release the
lo
cking clip. Then, open the filter to a
45° angle, unhook it, and remove it
from the hood.
Cleaning the grease filters by hand
 Clean the filters with a soft nylon
brush in a mil
d solution of hot water
and dish soap. Do not use undiluted
dish soap.
Unsuitable cleaning agents
Unsuitable cleaners can cause damage
to the filt
er surfaces if used regularly.
Do not use any of the following:
– Lime removers
– Abrasive powders or abrasive liquids
– Aggressive all-purpose cleaners and
degrease
r sprays
– Oven sprays
Cleaning the grease filters in the
dishwasher
 Place the filters as upright or inclined
as possible in
the lower basket. En‐
sure that the spray arm is not ob‐
structed.
 Use a common household dishwash‐
er deter
gent.
 Select a program with a wash tem‐
per
ature between 122°F (50°C) and
149°F (65°C). In a Miele dishwasher
use the "Normal" program.
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.
After cleaning
 After cleaning, leave the filters on an
absorbent surface to dry.
 When removing the filters for clean‐
ing, also clean off any accessible oil
or fat buildup fr
om the housing. Do‐
ing so will prevent a fire hazard.
 Reinstall the grease filters. When in‐
ser
ting the filters, make sure that the
locking clip is facing down.
