Cleaning and care

Cleaning the appliance front
Damage due to soiling.
Soiling that is left too long might be-
come impossible to remove and
could cause the external surfaces to
alter or discolour.
It is therefore best to remove any
soiling immediately.
Clean the appliance front with a clean
soft sponge and a solution of warm
water and washing-up liquid. After
cleaning, wipe the surfaces dry using
a soft cloth.
A clean, damp microfibre cloth
without detergent can also be used.
To avoid damaging the external sur-
faces, do not use the following:
- Detergents containing soda, ammo-
nia, acids or chlorides
- Detergents containing descaling
agents
- Abrasive detergents, e.g. scouring
powder, scouring liquid, or pumice
stones
- Detergents containing solvents
- Stainless steel cleaning agents
- Dishwasher cleaner
- Oven cleaner
- Glass cleaning agents
- Hard, abrasive brushes or sponges,
e.g. pot scourers, brushes or
sponges that have been previously
used with abrasive cleaning agents
- Eraser stain remover blocks
- Sharp metal scrapers
- Wire wool
- Steam cleaners
