Cleaning and care
56
Cleaning the door and the door
seal
Mould could build up on the door seal
and the sides of the dishwasher door as
these surfaces are outside the wash
cabinet and so not accessed and
cleaned by the spray arm jets.
Wipe off any food or drink residues
which may have dripped onto the
sides and seals of the dishwasher
door with a damp cloth before clos-
ing it.
Cleaning the door front
Soiling that is left too long might
become impossible to remove and
could cause the external surfaces to
alter or discolour.
Remove any soiling immediately.
Clean the front with a clean sponge
and a solution of hot water and wash-
ing-up liquid. After cleaning dry with a
soft cloth.
A clean, damp microfibre cloth
without cleaning agent can also be
used.
To avoid damaging the external sur-
faces, do not use:
– cleaning agents containing soda, am-
monia, acids or chlorides,
– cleaning agents containing descaling
agents,
– abrasive cleaning agents, e.g.
powder cleaners and cream cleaners,
– solvent-based cleaning agents,
– stainless steel cleaning agents,
– dishwasher cleaner,
– oven sprays,
– glass cleaning agents,
– hard, abrasive brushes or sponges,
e.g. pot scourers, brushes or
sponges which have been previously
used with abrasive cleaning agents,
– melamine eraser blocks,
– sharp metal scrapers,
– wire wool,
– steam cleaning appliances.
