Cleaning the door seal


Risk of damage as a result of
incorrect cleaning.
If you treat the door seal with oils or
grease, it can become porous.
Do not use any oils or grease on the
door seal.
 The door seal should be cleaned
regularly with clean water and then
wiped dry with a cloth.

Cleaning the ventilation gaps

A build-up of dust will increase the
energy consumption of the appliance.
 The ventilation gaps should be
cleaned on a regular basis with a
brush or vacuum cleaner (e.g. use the
dusting brush for Miele vacuum
cleaners)
