Cleaning and Care

Cleaning and Care

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

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

They will damage the surface.

Exterior

Only use a conditioner suitable for your kitchen cabinetry.

Clean wood only 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 or online at www.mieleusa.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.

Control panel

The plastic control panel should only be wiped with a damp cloth or suitable cleaning agent designed for use on plastic.

The appliance front and controls are not scratch proof.

Remove spills immediately.

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,

–steam cleaning products.
