The ironer generally requires very little

attention.

Cleaning the heater plate

Limescale and starch deposits can stick to

the heater plate. It should therefore be

cleaned 1-3 times a week, depending on the

degree of soiling.

For light soiling, clean with Cleanpaste on a

wax cloth.

For heavier soiling, use a cleaning cloth

together with a cleaning mat.

The heater plate should always be waxed

after it has been cleaned.

The special ironer cleaning cloth and wax

should only be ordered from the Miele Spare

Parts Department.

,

Do not use abrasive cleaning agents

or abrasive cleaning cloths.

See the Miele Ironing Handbook for more

details.

Roller cover

Before removing the roller cover (for

cleaning or replacement) switch the ironer

off and disconnect it from the mains. Allow

the heater plate to cool down and then

remove the laundry feed-in table and use the

heater plate release mechanism to raise the

heater plate away from the roller.

When removing and replacing the roller

cover, bits of steel wool will drop onto the

ironing table and may get into the gaps

around the heater plate supports. These

should be covered over. Particles of steel

wool should be removed from the ironing

table immediately.

The roller cover should not need washing if it

has become slightly yellow, as this is normal.

Wash a heavily soiled cover in a 95 °C

programme with pre-wash and spin. The

roller cover should be wound back on to a

moving, heated roller (ß setting) while still

damp, with the heater plate engaged.

If the steel wool padding needs replacing,

this must be done by a Miele authorised

service technician.

When re-covering the roller, the cover should

be between 656 mm and 664 mm wide to

ensure that the whole cylindrical width of the

roller is covered.

Discolouration of the roller cover

Some discolouration of the roller cover from

light to dark brown is normal.

To avoid the cover turning black:

–

Always use the complete width of the

roller.

–

Space out smaller items, and do not

always iron them in the same place.

– In pauses between ironing, disengage the

heater plate and reduce the temperature.
