Miele DA 5960 W Operating And Installation Instructions page 17

Cleaning the grease filters by hand
^ Clean the filter with a soft nylon brush
in a mild solution of hot water and a
little washing up liquid.
Do not use undiluted washing up
liquid.
Do not use:
– cleaning agents containing
descaling agents,
– powder cleaners, cream cleaners or
abrasive all-purpose cleaning
agents,
– oven sprays.
Cleaning the grease filters in the
dishwasher
^ Place the filters as upright as
possible in the lower basket. Ensure
the spray arm is not obstructed.
^ Do not wash at more than 65 °C. If a
Miele dishwasher is being used,
select the Sensor wash programme.
^ Use a mild dishwasher detergent.
Depending on the cleaning agent
used, cleaning the filters in a
dishwasher can cause permanent
discolouration to the surface.
However, this will not affect the
functioning of the filters in any way.
Cleaning and care
^ After cleaning, leave the filter to dry
for a while on an absorbent surface
before putting it back in place.
^ When removing the filter for cleaning,
also clean off any residues of oil or
fat from the now accessible casing to
prevent the risk of these catching fire.
When putting the grease filters back in
position, ensure that the locking clips
are facing down towards the cooktop.
If a grease filter is inadvertently
replaced upside down,
^ insert a small screwdriver blade into
the slit to disengage the clip.
