Cleaning and care
48
Check and clean your dishwasher
regularly. This will help avoid prob-
lems and faults.
All surfaces are susceptible to
scratching.
Contact with unsuitable cleaning
agents can alter or discolor all sur-
faces.
Cleaning the wash cabinet
Generally, the wash cabinet is self
cleaning if the correct amount of deter-
gent is used.
If, however, there are limescale or
grease deposits in the wash cabinet,
these can be removed with a special
cleaning agent (available from Miele).
Follow the instructions on the packag-
ing.
If you mainly use low temperature pro-
grams (< 120°F/50 °C), there is a risk of
bacteria and unpleasant odors building
up in the wash cabinet. To prevent this
happening the dishwasher will automat-
ically increase the temperature in the fi-
nal rinse of the selected program after
several programs using low tempera-
tures have been run.
Clean the filters in the wash cabinet
regularly.
Cleaning the door and the door
seal
Bacteria could build up on the door seal
and the sides of the dishwasher door as
these surfaces are outside the wash
cabinet and are not accessed and
cleaned by the spray arm jets.
Wipe the door seals regularly with a
damp cloth to remove food deposits.
Wipe off any food or drink residues
which may have dripped onto the
sides of the dishwasher door before
closing it.
Cleaning the control panel
The control panel should
only
be
wiped with a damp cloth.
