Cleaning And Care - Miele Professional WS 5240 Container Gebrauchsanweisung

Cleaning and Care

The machine should be cleaned and any
essential maintenance carried out,
immediately after use.
On no account use high pressure cleaners or
hose down the machine.
Build-up of rust
The drum and suds container are manufac-
tured from rust-free stainless steel. It is, how-
ever, possible that water with a high iron con-
tent or foreign bodies in the wash, (e.g. paper
clips or metal buttons), may lead to the forma-
tion of superficial rust spots in the drum
and/or suds container, especially if the ma-
chine is not used for a long time. Stainless
steel components should be cleaned regularly
with a proprietary cleaning agent for stainless
steel. This must be done if rust appears!
To protect your machine from rust damage
we recommend the use of chloride-free disin-
fecting and cleaning agents. If you are unsure
about a particular agent you should contact
the manufacturer for advice.
Door seals should also be regularly checked
to make sure that nothing has got trapped in
them. Clean them regularly.
The housing and any plastic components, in-
cluding control elements and the fascia panel
should be cleaned with appropriate mild
cleaners or with a damp cloth and wiped dry.
Use a proprietary stainlesss steel cleaner for
housing parts of stainless steel.
Any scouring agents will scratch the surface.
If you are unsure about a particular product or
need further advice please contact your near-
est Miele Sales office. See back page for ad-
dress.

To clean the dispenser box and siphon
After use the dispenser compartment should
be cleaned with warm water to remove any
detergent or other residues.
The siphon tube in the detergent dispenser
dish should also be cleaned.
Remove the siphon tube and clean with hot
water. Put back in place.
Cleaning the cooling fan grille
The ventilation slits in the grille cover for the
cooling fan at the rear of the machine must be
regularly checked for fluff and dirt and
cleaned whenever necessary.
