Cleaning and care

Cleaning the door seal
Do not use any grease or oil on the
door seal as these will cause the seal
to deteriorate and become porous
over time.
 The door seal should be cleaned reg-
ularly with clean water, and then
wiped dry with a soft cloth.
Cleaning the ventilation gaps
 The ventilation gaps should be
cleaned on a regular basis with a
brush or vacuum cleaner (you could
use a Miele vacuum cleaner dusting
brush, for example).
A build-up of dust will increase the
energy consumption of the appliance.
After cleaning
 Replace all shelves and accessories
in the appliance.
 Reconnect to the mains and switch
the appliance back on.
 Switch on the Super cool function for
a while so that the appliance can cool
down quickly.
 Place food back in the appliance and
close the door.
 When the temperature in the freezer
compartment is low enough, place
food back in the freezer compartment
and close the door.
