458851
Before cleaning, unplug the appliance from the power mains
– switch off the appliance
(see chapter Switching the Appliance On/Off) and unplug the power cord from the wall
outlet.
• Use a
soft cloth
to clean all surfaces. Cleaners that contain
abrasive substances, acids,
or solvents are not suitable for cleaning
as they may damage the surface.
Clean the appliance
exterior
with water or a mild solution of suds. Lacquer-coated and
aluminium surfaces may be cleaned with lukewarm water to which you have added a mild
detergent. Use of cleaners with low alcohol content is allowed (e.g. window cleaners).
Do not use cleaners containing alcohol for cleaning plastic materials.
Appliance interior
can be cleaned with lukewarm water to which you can add some
vinegar.
• The condenser
unit mounted on the
(exterior) back wall should always be
kept clean, free of dust or deposits
resulting from kitchen smoke or fumes.
Occasionally clean the dust using a soft
non-metal brush or a vacuum cleaner.
• After cleaning, switch the appliance back
on and insert the food.
