Do not let it drop on to the hob below. ^ To take out the grease filter press the locking clip in towards the middle of the filter. ^ Clean the filter ­ by hand: with a nylon brush, warm water with a little washing up liquid. ­ in a dishwasher: place the filter with the short side upright in the lower basket, ensuring the spray arm is not obstructed.
