Cleaning and care
55
Cleaning the door and the door
seal
The door seal and the sides of the
dishwasher door are not accessed and
cleaned by the spray arm jets.
Regularly 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 closing it to prevent the build-
up of mould.
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 dish
soap. After cleaning, wipe the front
dry using a soft cloth.
A clean, damp microfibre cloth
without cleaning agent can also be
used for cleaning.
To avoid damage to the outer
surface, do not use:
– Cleaning agents containing soda,
ammonia, acid or chloride
– Cleaning agents containing lime
scale remover
– Abrasive cleaning products such as
scouring powder, scouring liquid or
pumice stones
– Cleaning agents containing solvents
– Stainless-steel cleaning agents
– Dishwasher cleaner
– Oven cleaner
– Glass cleaner
– Hard, abrasive brushes or sponges,
e.g. pot scourers, brushes or
sponges which have been previously
used with abrasive cleaning agents
– Eraser sponges
– Sharp metal scrapers
– Steel wool
– Steam cleaning appliances.
