Maintenance

Cleaning the machine
Never clean the machine or surrounding area with a water hose
or a pressure washer.
Do not use cleaning agents containing ammonia or thinners on
stainless steel surfaces!
These agents can damage the surface material.
Cleaning the
control panel
Do not use any abrasive materials or general-purpose cleaners
to clean the control panel.
These can cause considerable damage to the glass and plastic
surfaces and to the onset control buttons.
Clean the control panel with a damp cloth and a solution of
dishwashing liquid or with a non-abrasive stainless steel cleaner.
Proprietary glass or plastic cleaning agents can also be used to
clean the display.
For surface disinfection only use low-level surface disinfectants. Do
not use high-level disinfectants such as Hydrogen Peroxide and
Paracetic Acid.
Cleaning the door
and the door seal
Wipe the door seal regularly with a damp cloth to remove any
soiling.
Seals which are no longer tight or which have suffered damage
must be replaced with new ones by Miele Service.
Remove any soiling from the door sides and hinges.
Regularly clean the groove in the plinth panel under the door with a
damp cloth.
Cleaning the
wash cabinet
The wash cabinet is generally self-cleaning. However, should a build-
up of deposits occur in the cabinet, please contact Miele Service for
advice.
Cleaning the front
To clean the stainless steel front, use a damp cloth with a solution
of dishwashing liquid and hot water, or with a non-abrasive cleaning
agent for use on stainless steel. For surface disinfection only use
low-level disinfectants. Do not use high-level disinfectants such as
Hydrogen Peroxide and Paracetic Acid.
Preventing
re-soiling
To help prevent re-soiling of stainless steel surfaces (fingerprints,
etc.), a suitable stainless steel conditioner can be used after
cleaning.
