and Safety instructions”).

General information
Unsuitable cleaning agents can dam-
age the surfaces and control ele-
ments.
Do not use any cleaning agents con-
taining soda, acid, chloride or
solvent.
Do not use any abrasive cleaning
agents, e.g. powder cleaners or
cream cleaners and abrasive
sponges, as well as pot scourers or
sponges which have been used pre-
viously with abrasive cleaning
agents.
 Moisture in the cooker hood can
cause damage.
Make sure that water does not get
into the cooker hood.
 All external surfaces and control ele-
ments can be cleaned using hot wa-
ter with a small amount of washing-
up liquid applied with a well wrung-
out soft sponge or cloth.
 After cleaning, wipe the surfaces dry
using a soft cloth.
Important information for appliances
with stainless steel surfaces
Stainless steel surfaces can be cleaned
with a non-abrasive cleaning agent de-
signed specifically for use on stainless
steel.
To prevent the surfaces from quickly
becoming dirty again, we recommend
treating them with a stainless steel care
product (available from Miele).
Important information for the control
elements
If soiling is not removed promptly, it
could cause the control elements to
alter or discolour.
Remove any soiling immediately.
The surface of the control elements
can become damaged if they are
cleaned using stainless steel clean-
ing agents.
Do not use stainless steel cleaning
agents on the control elements.
Baffle filters
 Fire hazard
Oversaturated grease filters are a fire
hazard.
Clean the grease filters at regular in-
tervals.
The re-usable stainless steel baffle fil-
ters in the appliance remove solid
particles (grease, dust, etc.) from the
kitchen vapours, preventing soiling of
the cooker hood.
The baffle filters must be cleaned at
regular intervals.
