Regular heater plate care is essential for protecting the roller drive and the padding. Refer to the instructions in the Miele Ironing Handbook. Always wax the heater plate after clean- ing. Failure to exercise due care and attention can result in a significant reduction in the service life of the ironer.
Cleaning and care Using the cleaning cloth Use the cleaning cloth for cleaning the heater plate. Since the cleaning cloth is narrower than the heater plate, you cannot clean the entire heater plate width by feeding the cloth through once. You need to feed the cleaning cloth through the ironer several times, and move it from side to side.
Cleaning and care It is essential to wax the heater plate after cleaning. You can then switch directly to the waxing programme by pressing the temperature selec- tion button on the right or exit the cleaning programme by pressing and holding the button for at least 3 seconds.

Contact the Miele Customer Service Department. For rollers with leaf-spring padding, the ironing cloth may only be removed or fitted by the Miele Customer Service Depart- ment or by trained personnel from an authorised dealer. Before the ironing cloth can be removed from rollers with steel-wool padding, the laun- dry pickers on the roller need to be fully retracted one after the other.
Miele Customer Service Department In the event of a malfunction, contact the Miele Customer Service Department. The Miele Service department requires the model and serial number [SN] of the ironer.
