Cleaning and care

Cleaning them with water

If there is a great deal of compacted fluff on any of the filters, they can be removed and cleaned under hot running water.

^To remove the fluff filter from the door holder see previous page.

^To remove the filters in the door opening, grip the holder and push upwards in the direction of the arrow to remove it.

^Rinse the filters under hot, running water.

^Then shake the filters until no more water droplets are visible.

^Dry the filters thoroughly with care.

,Do not replace them if they are damp or wet. Damp or wet filters could cause operational faults.

^Push the large filter back into the door holder until it clicks into position. Ensure it is facing the correct way.

^Place the filters back in the door opening (the left and right filters are identical) with the finger holders facing upwards. See illustration.

Cleaning the tumble dryer

Disconnect the machine from the mains electricity supply.

^Clean the housing and control panel with a slightly damp cloth and a mild detergent or soapy water.

^The drum and other stainless steel parts can be cleaned with a suitable proprietary stainless steel cleaner following the manufacturer's instructions.

Do not use solvents, abrasive cleaners, glass cleaners or all-purpose cleaners. These could damage plastic sufaces and other parts. The machine must never be hosed down.

^Dry all parts with a soft 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. It can be washed 300 times.
