^ Clean the casing using a Miele
E-Cloth or with a mild non-abrasive
cleaning agent or soap and water
using a well wrung-out cloth. Wipe
dry with a soft cloth.
^ The drum can be cleaned using a
suitable stainless-steel cleaning
agent following the instructions on
the packaging.
,
Do not use solvents, abrasive
cleaners, glass cleaners or
all-purpose cleaning agents.
These might damage plastic
surfaces and other components
because of the chemicals they
contain.
Extra cleaning
Carry out a hot wash (70°C or above)
with powder detergent approx. every 6
weeks to help prevent deposits building
up in the machine. These can occur
when washing is mainly done at low
temperatures, and can lead to
unpleasant smells. If you have no
reason to wash occasionally at this high
temperature, then run a Cottons 95°C
programme with detergent but no
laundry at regular intervals.
Cleaning the detergent
dispenser drawer
For hygienic reasons, clean the entire
drawer at regular intervals.
^
Pull out the detergent dispenser
drawer until a resistance is felt. Press
down the release catch and at the
same time pull the drawer right out of
the machine.
^
Clean the detergent drawer with
warm water.
