Cleaning and care
Before any cleaning or maintenance
work the cooker hood must be dis-
connected from the mains supply.
Ensure that:
- it is switched off at the wall socket
and the plug has been withdrawn
(do not pull on the cable, only on
the plug), or
– the fuse has been withdrawn from
the fused spur connection unit, or
- the mains fuse is withdrawn, or
- the screw-out fuse is removed (in
countries where this is applicable).
Warning: The surfaces and controls
are susceptible to scratches and ab-
rasion. Please observe the following
cleaning instructions:
All external surfaces can be cleaned
using warm water with a little wash-
ing up liquid applied with a well
wrung out soft sponge or cloth.
Wipe dry using a soft cloth.
Do not use too much water when
cleaning the controls. Water could
penetrate into the electronics and
cause damage.
Glass surfaces can be cleaned
using a proprietary cleaning agent
for glass.
Avoid:
– cleaning agents containing soda,
acids or chlorides,
– abrasive cleaning agents, e.g. pow-
der cleaners or cream cleaners,
– abrasive sponges, e.g. pot scourers
or sponges which have been pre-
viously used with abrasive cleaning
agents.
These will damage the surface ma-
terial.
A microfibre "E-Cloth" is available from
the Miele UK Spare Parts Department,
Part number 98013530, which is suit-
able for cleaning surfaces such as
stainless steel, glass, plastic and
chrome without the use of chemicals.
Stainless steel surfaces can be
cleaned using a proprietary non-ab-
rasive cleaning agent designed specifi-
cally for use on stainless steel.
To help prevent re-soiling, proprietary
conditioning agents for stainless steel
can also be used.
Apply sparingly with an even pressure.
These controls are made of stain-
less steel coloured lacquered plas-
tic and may suffer discolouration or
damage if soiling is left on them for
too long.
Remove any soiling straight away.
Do not use stainless steel cleaning
agents on these types of controls.
