Cleaning and care

Never use abrasive cleaners on the appliance, or products that contain washing soda, acids, chlorine bleach or chemical solvents.

Note that so-called non-abrasive cleaners are also unsuitable as they can cause dull patches.

For all stainless steel surfaces, use a suitable stainless steel cleaner (available through Miele Customer Service).

Make sure that no water gets into the electronics or into the lighting.

Do not let any cleaning water get into the condensate drain hole.

Do not use a steam cleaner to clean the appliance. Steam could reach the electrical components and cause a short circuit.

Never remove the data plate inside the appliance. It contains important information that is required in the event of a service call.

Before cleaning

￿Switch the appliance off, then unplug it from the socket.

￿Take any food out of the appliance and store it in a cool place.

￿Take out any removable parts so that they can be cleaned.

￿To clean the serving shelves in the door, remove the hanging containers from the stainless steel frames.

Cleaning the outside walls, the interior and accessories

Use lukewarm water with some mild dish liquid. The parts should all be cleaned by hand.

￿Clean the appliance at least once a month.

￿Clean the condensate channel and drain hole more frequently using a cotton swab, for instance, so that condensate can drain away unobstructed.

￿After washing, wipe the outside walls, the interior and accessories with clear water, then dry with a soft cloth. Leave the appliance doors open for a short while.

￿Use a special product to clean the stainless steel surfaces.

￿After each cleaning, wipe the stainless steel surfaces with a product designed for the care of stainless steel!

It is important that the stainless steel surfaces are sealed with a product suitable for stainless steel after each cleaning. This protects the stainless steel surface and prevents the surface from becoming soiled too quickly.
