Never use cleaning agents contain
-
ing abrasive substances such as
sand, soda, acids or chemical
solvents.
"Non-abrasive" cleaning agents are
also unsuitable as they can cause
matt areas to appear.
Door fronts should be cleaned using
a solution of warm water with mild
detergent applied with a soft cloth or
with a suitable cleaning agent for the
type of door panel fitted.
Make sure that no water can pene-
trate into the electronic unit or into
the light.
Do not let water get into the
drainage channel and drain hole
when cleaning.
Never use steam cleaning appara-
tus to defrost or clean the appliance.
The steam could attack the electrical
components and cause a short
circuit.
The data plate located inside the
appliance must not be removed. It
contains information which is re
-
quired in the event of a service call.
Before cleaning
^
Switch the appliance off by turning
the On/Off dial to the "0" position.
^
Take any food out of the appliance
and store it in a cool place.
^
Take out any removable parts e.g.
shelves for cleaning.
Cleaning the interior and
accessories
Use lukewarm water with a little mild
detergent. Accessories and shelves
should all be hand washed. The butter
dish is, however, dishwasher safe.
^
Clean the appliance at least once a
month.
^
Clean the condensate channel and
drain hole frequently, so that conden
-
sate can drain away unhindered. Use
a straw or similar to clear the drain if
necessary.
^ Wipe the interior and accessories
with a damp cloth and dry with a soft
cloth. Leave the door open to air for a
short while.
E-Cloth
^ A microfibre "E-Cloth" is available
from the Miele UK Spare Parts
Department, Part Number 980 13530,
which is suitable for cleaning
surfaces such as stainless steel,
glass, plastic and chrome without the
use of chemicals.
Ventilation gaps
^
The ventilation gaps should be
cleaned on a regular basis with a
brush or vacuum cleaner. A build up
of dust will increase the appliance’s
energy consumption.
