Cleaning and Care

For hygienic reasons the appliance interior, including interior accessories,
should be cleaned regularly.
Warning!
The appliance must not be connected to the mains during cleaning.
Danger of electrical shock. Before cleaning switch the appliance off and
remove the plug from the mains, or switch off or disconnect from the
electricity supply.
Never clean the appliance with a steam cleaner. Moisture could
accumulate in electrical components and there is a danger of an electrical
shock. Hot vapours can lead to the damage of plastic parts.
The appliance must be dry before it is switched back on.
Important!
Ethereal oils and organic solvents can attack plastic parts, e.g.
- lemon juice or the juice from orange peals;
- butyric acid;
- cleansers which contain acetic acid.
Do not allow such substances to come into contact with appliance parts.
Do not use any abrasive cleansers.
Before any maintenance of cleaning work is carried out DISCONNECT the
appliance from the ELECTRICITY SUPPLY.

Internal Cleaning

Clean the inside and accessories with warm water and bicarbonate of soda (5
ml to 0.5 litre of water). Rinse and dry thoroughly.
Do not use detergents, abrasive powders, highly perfumed cleaning products,
wax polishes or cleaning products containing bleach or alcohol.
Clean the drain hole of the water trough at regular intervals and ensure that
the drain hole is clear at all times. If blocked carefully clear using a piece of
flexible curtain wire inserted into the drain outlet to remove the blockage.
Regularly check the door seals and wipe clean to ensure they are clean and
free from debris.
Accumulation of dust at the condenser increases energy consumption. For
this reason carefully clean the condenser at the back of the appliance once
a year with a soft brush or a vacuum cleaner.
