Cleaning And Care; Cleaning The Wash Cabinet; Cleaning The Door And The Door Seal - Miele Standard Operating Instructions Manual

Check the condition of your
dishwasher regularly (approx. every
4 - 6 months). This way faults and
problems can be avoided.
,
The outer surfaces of the
dishwasher are susceptible to
scratching.
Contact with unsuitable cleaning
agents can alter or discolour the
outer surfaces.

Cleaning the wash cabinet

The wash cabinet is largely
self-cleaning, provided that the correct
amount of detergent is always used.
If, however, there are limescale or
grease deposits in the cabinet, these
can be removed with the Original Miele
dishwasher conditioning agent
(available from Miele or at
www.miele-shop.com, depending on
country). Follow the dosage
recommended by the manufacturer on
the packaging.
If you only wash at low temperatures
(< 50 °C) over a long period of time,
organic deposits and unpleasant
odours can form in the machine. To
clean the wash cabinet and prevent the
formation of unpleasant odours, the
"Pots & pans 75 °C" programme should
be run at least once a month.
You should also clean the filters in the
wash cabinet on a regular basis.

Cleaning and care

Cleaning the door and the door
seal
^ Wipe the door seal regularly with a
damp cloth to remove food deposits.
^ When the dishwasher is being
loaded, food and drink residues may
drip onto the sides of the dishwasher
door.
These surfaces are outside the wash
cabinet and are not accessed by water
from the spray arms. Any soiling should
be wiped off these surfaces before the
door is closed to avoid the formation of
mould inside the wash cabinet.
