Cleaning and care
44
WARNING! DANGER of electric
shock!
Unplug the appliance or trip the cir-
cuit breaker.
WARNING! Fire hazard!
Do not damage the coolant
pipework.
Make sure that water cannot get into
the electronic unit or into the lighting
or the metal discs (contacts) in the
left-hand shelf supports.
Cleaning water must not get into the
drain hole.
Do not use a steam cleaner. Steam
from a steam cleaning appliance
could reach the electrical compo-
nents and cause a short circuit.
The data plate located inside the ap-
pliance must not be removed. It con-
tains information which is required in
the event of a service call.
Cleaning agents
Cleaning and conditioning agents
used inside the refrigerator must be
food-safe.
To avoid damaging the surfaces of your
appliance,
do not
use the following:
– cleaning agents containing soda, am-
monia, acid, or chloride,
– cleaning agents containing lime scale
remover,
– abrasive cleaning agents, such as
scouring powder, scouring liquid, or
pumice stones,
– cleaning agents containing solvents,
– stainless steel cleaning agents,
– dishwasher cleaner,
– oven sprays,
– glass cleaners
– hard, abrasive sponges and brushes,
such as pot scrubbers,
– eraser sponges,
– sharp metal scrapers.
We recommend treating the stainless
steel surfaces of the refrigerator with
the Miele stainless steel conditioning
agent (see “Optional accessories”).
This product contains substances that
are gentle to stainless steel surfaces
and, unlike stainless steel cleaners, it
does not contain polishing agents.
Soiling is gently removed and each
time the Miele stainless steel condi-
tioning agent is used, it forms a pro-
tective film against dirt and water.
