E-cloth
A microfibre "E-Cloth" is available from
the Miele UK Spare Parts Department,
which is suitable for cleaning surfaces
such as stainless steel, glass, plastic
and chrome without the use of
chemicals.
To prevent the risk of scratches and
damage to the surface structure of
glass, stainless steel and aluminium
fronted appliances pay particular
attention to the following cleaning
instructions.
Glass fronted appliances
The appliance front and controls are
susceptible to scratches and
abrasions.
Avoid:
–
abrasive cleaning agents, e.g.
powder cleaners and cream
cleaners,
–
abrasive sponges, e.g. pot scourers
or sponges which have been
previously used with abrasive
cleaning agents,
–
oven sprays.
Clean the door handle and the control
elements regularly, preferably after
each use.
This will help prevent grease and other
deposits adhering to surfaces and
becoming difficult to remove.
Aluminium fronted appliances
Aluminium is affected by the way that
light falls on it, by the surrounding
environment and by the angle you
observe it from.
Aluminium surfaces and controls
may suffer discolouration or damage
if soiling is left on them for too long.
Remove any soiling straight away.
The appliance front and controls are
susceptible to scratches and
abrasions.
Avoid:
– cleaning agents containing soda,
acids or chlorides,
–
abrasive cleaning agents, e.g.
powder cleaners and cream
cleaners,
–
abrasive sponges, e.g. pot scourers
or sponges which have been
previously used with abrasive
cleaning agents,
–
stainless steel cleaners,
–
cleaning agents containing
descaling agents,
–
dishwasher detergent,
–
oven sprays.
