A range of Miele branded cleaning
agents, including a microfibre
"E-Cloth", is available from the Miele
UK Spare Parts Department, or via
the internet at www.miele-shop.com.
Never use cleaning agents
containing abrasive substances
such as sand, soda, acids chlorides
or chemical solvents.
"Non-abrasive" cleaning agents are
also unsuitable as they can cause
matt areas to appear.
Do not let water get into the
electronic unit, into the light or into
the ventilation gaps.
Do not let water get into the
drainage channel and drain hole
when cleaning.
Do not use steam cleaning
apparatus to clean the appliance.
Steam could reach the electrical
components and cause a short
circuit.
The data plate located inside the
appliance must not be removed. It
contains information which is
required in the event of a service
call.
Before cleaning
^
Switch the appliance off, switch off at
the wall socket and withdraw the
plug.
^
Take any food out of the appliance
and store it in a cool place.
^
Defrost the freezer.
^
Take out any removable parts, e.g.
shelves, for cleaning.
Cleaning the outer casing, the
interior and accessories
Use warm water with a little washing-up
liquid. Wash all accessories and
drawers by hand only. Do not wash in a
dishwasher.
^ Clean the refrigerator section at least
once a month and the freezer section
each time it is defrosted.
^ Clean the condensate channel and
drain hole frequently, so that
condensate can drain away
unhindered. Use a straw or similar to
clear the drain if necessary.
^
After cleaning wipe the outer casing,
interior and accessories with a damp
cloth and dry with a soft cloth. Leave
the doors open to air the appliance
for a short while.
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.
