Cleaning and care

Removing normal soiling
Moisture inside the oven can cause
damage.
Do not use too much water on the
cloth or sponge and do not let water
or any other substance find its way
into any openings.
It is best to remove normal soiling
immediately using a clean sponge
and a solution of hot water and
washing-up liquid, or a clean, damp
microfibre cloth.
Remove any residual cleaning agent
thoroughly with clean water.
This is particularly important for any
parts with a PerfectClean finish, as
cleaning agent residues will impair
the non-stick properties.
After cleaning, wipe the surfaces dry
using a soft cloth.
Removing stubborn soiling
Spilt fruit and roasting juices may
cause lasting discolouration or matte
patches on surfaces. This
discolouration will not affect the
functional characteristics of the
surface finish.
Do not attempt to remove these
marks. Clean them following the
instructions given here.
Moisten stubborn soiling with a
solution of hot water and washing-up
liquid and leave to soak for a few
minutes.
If necessary, the scouring pad on the
back of a non-scratching washing-up
sponge can be used to remove the
soiling after the soaking time.
Using oven cleaners
Very stubborn soiling on PerfectClean
surfaces can be cleaned using Miele
Oven Cleaner. This cleaner must only
be applied to cold surfaces.
If the oven spray gets into gaps and
openings, a strong odour is
generated during subsequent
cooking programmes.
Do not spray the oven cleaner onto
the roof of the oven compartment.
Do not spray the oven cleaner into
the gaps and openings of the oven
compartment walls and rear wall.
Follow the instructions on the
packaging.
Oven cleaners from other
manufacturers must only be used in a
cold oven and must not be left on for
longer than 10 minutes.
If necessary, the scouring pad on the
back of a non-scratching washing-up
sponge can be used to remove the
soiling after the soaking time.
Remove any residual cleaning agent
thoroughly with clean water.
Dry all surfaces with a soft cloth.
