Miele w864 Washer User Manual


 
Cleaning the washing machine
^
Clean the casing with a mild
non-abrasive detergent or soap and
water. Wipe dry with a soft cloth.
^
Clean the facia panel and lid with a
damp cloth and dry with a soft cloth.
^
The drum can be cleaned using a
suitable proprietary stainless steel
cleaner.
Do not use solvents, abrasive
cleaners, glass cleaners or all-pur
-
pose cleaners. These might cause
damage to the plastic surfaces be-
cause of the chemicals they contain.
The washing machine must not be
hosed down.
E-cloth
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.
Extra cleaning
Carrying out a hot wash (70°C or
above) with powder detergent approx.
once every six weeks will help prevent
deposits building up in the machine.
These can occur when washing is
mainly done at low temperatures, and
lead to unpleasant smells. If you have
no reason to wash laundry occasionally
at this high temperature, then carry out
a 95°C COTTONS programme as a
cleaning cycle with powder detergent,
but not laundry, at regular intervals.
