Disconnect the microwave oven
from the power supply before
cleaning (e.g. switch off at the
socket and remove the plug).

A microfibre E-Cloth is available from
the Miele UK Spare Parts Department
which is suitable for cleaning
surfaces such as stainless steel,
glass, plastic and chrome without the
use of chemicals. It can be washed
300 times.
Oven interior and door interior
The oven interior can get hot during
use. To avoid the danger of being
burnt, wait until it has cooled down
before cleaning. It should be
cleaned after each use. If left too
long cleaning becomes
unnecessarily difficult, and in
extreme cases impossible.
The oven interior and door interior can
be cleaned using a damp cloth with a
little washing up liquid or a mild
detergent and water. Wipe dry with a
soft cloth.
For more heavy soiling, heat a glass of
water for 2 to 3 minutes until the water
begins to boil. The steam will collect on
the walls and soften the soiling.
The oven interior can now be wiped
clean using a little washing-up liquid if
necessary.
Do not remove the cover to the
microwave outlet inside the oven.
Do not let water or any small
particles penetrate the vents in the
appliance.
Wring out cloths before using them
to wipe out the oven to avoid
moisture getting into the openings.
Do not use abrasive cleaners, as
these scratch the surface.
Stainless steel surfaces can be cleaned
with a proprietary non-abrasive cleaner
for stainless steel, following the
instructions given by the manufacturer
on the packaging.
To neutralise odours in the microwave
oven, put a cup of water with some
lemon juice in the oven and simmer for
a few minutes.
