Cleaning and care
Check your dishwasher regularly (ap‐ prox. every 4 - 6 months). This way faults and problems can be avoided.
The external surfaces of the dishwasher are susceptible to scratching.
Contact with unsuitable cleaning agents can alter or discolour the ex‐ ternal surfaces.

If, however, there are limescale or grease deposits in the cabinet, these can be removed with a proprietary dish‐ washer cleaner or conditioner (available from Miele). Follow the instructions on the packaging.
Using mainly low temperature pro‐ grammes (below 50 °C), could cause bacteria and unpleasant odours to build up in the wash cabinet. To avoid this, the dishwasher will increase the tem‐ perature in the final rinse of the selected programme automatically after several programmes using low temperatures have been run,
Clean the filters in the wash cabinet regularly.
Cleaning the door and the door seal
Mould could build up on the door seal and the sides of the dishwasher door as these surfaces are outside the wash cabinet and so not accessed and cleaned by the spray arm jets.
Wipe the door seal regularly with a damp cloth to remove food deposits.
Wipe off any food or drink residues which may have dripped onto the sides of dishwasher door before clos‐ ing it.
