Cleaning and care

Cleaning the front of the
appliance and the side panels
If soiling is left on for any length of
time, it may become impossible to
remove.
Surfaces may suffer discolouration or
damage.
Therefore it is best to remove soiling
from the appliance door and side
panels immediately.
All surfaces are susceptible to
scratching. Contact with unsuitable
cleaning agents can alter or
discolour the surfaces.
See “Cleaning agents” at the
beginning of this section.
The surfaces should be cleaned using
a solution of hot water and a little
washing-up liquid applied with a soft
sponge. They can also be cleaned
with a damp microfibre cloth (without
using any cleaning agent).
After cleaning, wipe with clean water
and dry with a soft cloth.
Stainless steel appliances
The appliance front has a high quality,
special finish (CleanSteel) which is
resistant to soiling and is very easy to
clean.
Do not use stainless steel
cleaning agent
on CleanSteel
surfaces. It will damage them.
Do not use Miele stainless steel
conditioning agent
on these
surfaces. This will cause noticeable
smearing.
Cleaning the ventilation gaps
A build-up of dust will increase the
energy consumption of the appliance.
The ventilation gaps should be
cleaned on a regular basis with a
brush or vacuum cleaner (e.g. use the
dusting brush for Miele vacuum
cleaners)
