15.1 Tips on cleaning and
care
Wipe down the
housing and the
controls with
nothing but water
and a damp
cloth.
This ensures the
parts of the appli-
ance will remain
clean and hy-
gienic.
Remove all de-
tergent residue,
spray residue or
other residues
immediately.
Fresh deposits
are easier to re-
move without
leaving any
residue.
Leave the appli-
ance door open
after use.
This allows the
residual water to
dry, reducing
odours in the ap-
pliance.

The base unit is the accessible area
at the bottom of the appliance in
which you will find the heat ex-
changer.
