a new damp cloth.
oIf you are using the appliance in recirculation mode, then be sure to replace the
carbon filters at the recommended interval (see section on “Fitting the carbon
filter” on page 9). A build up of grease could cause a fire hazard.
oNever attempt to clean the area above the grease filter.
The Grease filter

normal washing-up detergent.
IMPORTANT: Do not wash the grease filter in a dishwasher as the chemicals can
cause damage.
