Never use cleaning agents
containing abrasive substances
such as sand, soda, acids or
chemical solvents. "Non-abrasive"
cleaning agents are also unsuitable
as they can cause matt areas to
appear.
For stainless steel surfaces, use a
proprietary stainless steel cleaning
agent.
Do not let water get into the
electronic unit, ventilation gaps or
into the light.
Do not let water get into the
drainage channel and drain hole
when cleaning.
Do not use steam cleaning
apparatus to clean the appliance.
Steam could reach the electrical
components and cause a short
circuit.
The data plate located inside the
appliance must not be removed. It
contains information which is
required in the event of a service
call.
