Cleaning and care

Never use cleaning agents containing abrasive substances such as sand, soda (sodium carbonate), acids or chemical solvents.

"Non-abrasive" cleaning agents are also unsuitable as they can cause matte areas to appear.

Stainless steel surfaces can be treated using a proprietary conditioning agent for stainless steel (available from the Miele Spare Parts Department). Follow the manufacturer’s instructions (on the packaging).

Do not let water enter the electronic unit, the glass-edge lighting, the door display or the ventilation slits.

When cleaning, do not let water enter the drainage channel or drain hole.

Do not use steam-cleaning equipment to clean this appliance. Steam could reach the electrical components and cause a short circuit.

The data plate located inside the appliance must not be removed. It contains information that will be required in the event of a Service call.

Before cleaning

^Switch the appliance off by pressing both On/Off switches, then unplug it.

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

^Take out any removable parts, e.g., shelves, for cleaning.

Cleaning the housing, interior and accessories

Use warm water with a bit of dishwashing liquid. Wash all accessories by hand only. Do not wash in a dishwasher. However, the butter dish and the transparent trim at the front of the glass shelves are dishwasher safe.

^Clean the appliance at least once a month.

^To make it easier to clean the refrigerator shelves, you can remove the trim from the front, and the glass-edge lighting from the back.

^Clean the condensate channel and drain hole in the refrigerator section frequently so that condensate can drain away unhindered. Use a straw or similar item to clear the drain as needed.

^Clean stainless steel surfaces with a suitable cleaning agent, according to the manufacturer’s instructions on the packaging. Do NOT use stainless steel cleaner on the door display.
