Cleaning and care

Appliance front and control panel

Clean the door handle and the control elements regularly, preferably after each use. This will help to prevent grease and other deposits adhering to surfaces and becoming difficult to remove.

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

^Wipe the surfaces dry using a soft cloth.

E-Cloth

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.

To prevent the risk of scratches and damage to the surface structure of glass, stainless steel and aluminium fronted appliances, pay particular attention to the following cleaning instructions.

The appliance front and controls are susceptible to scratches and abrasions.

Avoid:

–abrasive cleaning agents, e.g. powder cleaners and cream cleaners,

–abrasive sponges, e.g. pot scourers or sponges which have been previously used with abrasive cleaning agents,

Aluminium fronted appliances

Aluminium is affected by the way that light falls on it, by the surrounding environment and by the angle you observe it from.

Aluminium surfaces and controls may suffer discolouration or damage if soiling, acids or alkaline substances are left on them for too long.

Remove these straight away.
