ter. Wipe dry with a soft cloth.

The drum can be cleaned using a
suitable proprietary stainless steel
cleaner.
Do not use abrasive cleaners, glass
cleaners or all-purpose cleaners.
These might cause damage to the
plastic surfaces because of the
chemicals they contain.
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 to en
-
sure that no deposits build up in the
machine. These can occur when wash
-
ing is mainly done at low temperatures,
and also lead to unpleasant smells. If
you have no reason to wash laundry oc
-
casionally at this high temperature, then
carry out a 95°C Cottons programme as
a cleaning cycle with powder detergent
and no washing, at regular intervals.
