Cleaning and Care

Check and clean your dishwasher regularly. This will help avoid faults and problems.

￿Abrasive cleaning agents, all-purpose cleaners, thinner or ammonium cleaners should not be used on the dishwasher.

They will damage the surface.

Exterior

￿Use a conditioner suitable for your kitchen cabinetry.

￿Clean wood with a damp cloth and wipe dry.

Clean the exterior with a solution of warm water and liquid soap applied with a soft sponge. Dry with a soft cloth.

Wash cabinet

Generally, the wash cabinet is self cleaning if the correct amount of detergent is used.

The wash cabinet can be cleaned with a dishwasher cleaner such as "Dis Cleaner" available from your Miele dealer, Miele or online at www.miele.com.

Door and the door seal

￿Wipe the door seals regularly with a damp cloth to remove food deposits.

￿Food residue and spilled liquids should be wiped from the sides of the dishwasher door. These are outside of the wash cabinet and are not cleaned by water from the spray arms.

Glass cleaners may be used to clean the exterior. However do not allow them to sit or "puddle", this can cause damage to the surface.

Remove the cleaner promptly.

To better maintain your appliance avoid the following:

cleaners containing soda, ammonia, thinners, or chlorides

cleaners containing descaling agents or lime removers,

abrasive cleaners,

stainless steel cleaners,

dishwasher soap (powder),

caustic (oven) cleaners,

scouring pads, steel wool, hard brushes,

metal scrapers.
