Cleaning and care
For hygienic reasons the appliance
(including exterior and interior
accessories) should be cleaned
regularly (at least every two months).
Warning!
The appliance must not be connected to
the mains during cleaning as there is a
danger of electrical shock! Before
cleaning switch the appliance off and
remove the plug from the mains socket.
Exterior cleaning
Wipe the control panel with a clean, soft
cloth.
Spray water onto the cleaning cloth
instead of spraying directly on the surface
of the appliance. This helps ensure an
even distribution of moisture to the
surface.
Clean the doors, handles and cabinet
surfaces with a mild detergent and then
wiped dry with a soft cloth.

replacing the shelves and baskets.
Thoroughly dry all surfaces and
removable parts before putting them
