Cleaning and care

Check your dishwasher regularly (ap‐
prox. every 4 - 6 months). This way
faults and problems can be avoided.

The external surfaces of the
dishwasher are susceptible to
scratching.
Contact with unsuitable cleaning
agents can alter or discolour the ex‐
ternal surfaces.

Cleaning the wash cabinet

The wash cabinet is largely self-clean‐
ing, 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 a proprietary dish‐
washer cleaner or conditioner (available
from Miele). Follow the instructions on
the packaging.
Using mainly low temperature pro‐
grammes (below 50 °C), could cause
bacteria and unpleasant odours to build
up in the wash cabinet. To avoid this,
the dishwasher will increase the tem‐
perature in the final rinse of the selected
programme automatically after several
programmes using low temperatures
have been run,
 Clean the filters in the wash cabinet
regularly.
58
Cleaning the door and the door
seal
Mould could build up on the door seal
and the sides of the dishwasher door
as these surfaces are outside the wash
cabinet and so not accessed and
cleaned by the spray arm jets.
 Wipe the door seal regularly with a
damp cloth to remove food deposits.
 Wipe off any food or drink residues
which may have dripped onto the
sides of dishwasher door before clos‐
ing it.

Cleaning the control panel

 The control panel should only be wi‐
ped with a damp cloth.

Cleaning the reflector panel

The reflector panel for the In-operation
indicator light is situated in the cover‐
plate underneath the worktop.
 The reflector panel should only be wi‐
ped with a damp cloth or a suitable
cleaning agent designed for use on
plastic.
