Cleaning and care
Regular cleaning and maintenance of the
heater plate is essential for the protection of
the motor and the roller cover. This also
helps to prolong the life of the machine.
Important: please also read the notes on
ironing and on cleaning and care given in
the separate Ironing Handbook.
Waxing the heater plate
To maintain the smooth surface of the heater
plate it should be waxed on a regular basis
with an ironer waxing cloth.
When waxing or cleaning the heater plate,
select temperature setting ßßß and the
slowest roller speed.
Wax
^ To apply wax with the wax cloth, place
some granular wax in the pouch of the wax
cloth, close the pouch and feed the cloth
through the ironer at 180 °C with the
non-rubberised side facing the heater
plate. Use the wax sparingly to avoid the
roller cover becoming too smooth.
Never feed the wax cloth into the rotary
ironer with the rubberised side facing the
heater plate.
^ Feed the cloth into the machine
repeatedly, moving along the whole width
of the roller from left to right.

Direction of feed
Waxing cloths and wax should only be
ordered from the Miele Spare Parts
Department.
Cleaning the heater plate
The aluminium heater plate must only be
cleaned using cleaning agents approved by
the manufacturer.
Because limescale and starch deposits can
stick to the heater plate, it should to be
cleaned 2-3 times a week, depending on the
degree of soiling.
Light soiling can be removed using
Cleanpaste on a cloth and ironing it at the
slowest speed on the ßßß temperature
setting.
More stubborn deposits can be removed
using a cleaning cloth together with a
cleaning mat at the slowest speed and on
the lowest temperature setting.
The heater plate should always be waxed
after it has been cleaned.
,
Do not use abrasive cleaning agents
or abrasive cleaning cloths.
See the Miele Ironing Handbook for more
details.
