Stainless steel surfaces
Clean the stainless steel surface weekly. For cleaning, use a soft cloth and
lukewarm water and use a cleaning agent suitable for stainless steel. Make sure
you wipe along the grain of the stainless steel to avoid unsightly scratches.
Control panel interface
Clean the control panel surface weekly. Use a soft cloth and lukewarm water for
cleaning. Make sure that the cloth is clean and not too wet before cleaning. Wipe
away excess moisture with a dry, soft cloth.
Monthly cleaning of the grease fi lters
Clean the fi lter every month to avoid a fi re hazard. The fi lter collects grease, smoke
and dust and thus infl uences the effi ciency of the cooker hood. If the fi lter is not
cleaned, grease residues will collect there.
