Cleaning the grease fi lter
The metal grease fi lter can be cleaned by hand or in a dish-
washer. We recommend cleaning the grease fi lter by hand.
Cleaning the fi lter by hand:
− Immerse the fi lter in a solution of boiling water to which
a degreasing detergent has been added.
− Use a brush for cleaning
− Then rinse the fi lters with warm water under a tap and
allow them to dry.
Cleaning the fi lter in a dishwasher:
When cleaning in a dishwasher the fi lter may discolour as a
result of the salt content. This does not affect its operation.
− Use a customary dishwasher detergent
− Do not put the saturated grease fi lters together with
crockery in the dishwasher
− Select a programme with a low temperature
− After cleaning allow the fi lter to drain.
When cleaning in a dishwasher the fi lter may
discolour as a result of the salt content. This
does not affect its operation.
