Cleaning and care

Before carrying out any cleaning or maintenance work, disconnect the cooker hood from the mains supply. Ensure that:

–it is switched off at the isolator, or

–it is switched off at the wall socket and the plug removed, or

–the fuse is withdrawn from the fused spur connection unit, or

–the mains fuse is withdrawn, or

–the screw-out fuse is removed (in countries where this is applicable).

Housing

General notes

The surfaces and controls are susceptible to scratches and abrasions. Please observe the following cleaning instructions.

^All external surfaces and controls can be cleaned using warm water with a little washing-up liquid applied with a well wrung-out soft sponge or cloth.

^Wipe the surfaces dry using a soft cloth.

Do not use too much water when cleaning the controls. Water could penetrate into the electronics and cause damage.

^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.

Avoid:

–cleaning agents containing soda, acids, chlorides or solvents,

–abrasive cleaning agents, e.g. powder cleaners or cream cleaners and abrasive sponges, as well as pot scourers or sponges which have been used previously with abrasive cleaning agents.

These will damage the surface material.

Important for appliances with stainless steel housing

(This infomation does not apply to the controls).

Stainless steel surfaces can be cleaned using the Miele E-cloth, or with a proprietary non-abrasive cleaning agent designed specifically for use on stainless steel.

To help prevent re-soiling, a proprietary conditioning agent for stainless steel, e.g. Neoblank (available from the Miele Spare Parts Dept.) can also be used. Apply sparingly, following the instructions on the label, with an even pressure in the direction of the "grain".

Important for appliances with lacquered housing

(special finish)

It is very difficult to clean this type of surface without causing minor marks to the surface material. This can become particularly noticeable with darker colours and if there is halogen lighting in the kitchen.
