Weekly
Clean the extractor surfaces once a week.
Switch off the cooktop and extractor and let them cool completely.
Use a soft, damp cloth with washing-up liquid or a mild glass cleaner.

Weekly
Clean at least weekly, after cooking fatty food, and when the filter-maintenance indicator requests it.
Switch off the cooktop and extractor and let them cool completely.
Remove the inlet nozzle and stainless-steel grease filter.
For hand washing, use a grease-dissolving cleaner, rinse with hot water, clean with a soft brush, then rinse with clean water. Alternatively, place the parts in the dishwasher so water cannot collect in them and choose a programme no hotter than 65 °C.
Refit the components in reverse order. Put only clean, dry components back into the appliance.
Every 6 months
Clean the air duct housing every six months.
Switch off the appliance, let it cool, and safely disconnect the power before removing covers near the fan rotor.
Remove the inlet nozzle, grease filter, and filter replacement flap. Open the six latches around the housing and remove the housing base.
Clean the air duct housing and its base with a mild cleaning agent.
Use the three centring guides to position the housing base, press it upwards into the sealing groove and close all six latches. Check that the base is seated correctly.
Insert the filter replacement flap and check that it is seated correctly. Refit the stainless-steel grease filter and inlet nozzle.
When the cooktop is dirty
Clean whenever the cooktop is dirty.
Switch off the cooktop and extractor, let them cool completely, and check the residual-heat indicator.
Use a glass-ceramic scraper to remove coarse dirt and food residues.
Apply a suitable glass-ceramic cleaner to the cold cooktop and rub it with kitchen paper or a clean cloth.
Wipe the cooktop with a damp cloth, then dry it with a clean cloth.
When the control panel is dirty
Wipe the control panel whenever it becomes dirty.
Switch off the cooktop and extractor and let them cool completely.
Use a lightly dampened cloth and a non-abrasive cleaning agent; do not spray the appliance or let water enter it.
When the stainless-steel grease filter can no longer be cleaned completely
Replace the stainless-steel grease filter if thorough cleaning no longer removes all dirt.
Obtain a suitable replacement stainless-steel grease filter for the unit.
Switch off the cooktop and extractor and let them cool completely.
Remove the inlet nozzle and the old grease filter. Install the clean, dry replacement grease filter and refit the inlet nozzle in reverse order.
