Cleaning and care
49
The residual water drawer is
dishwasher-safe or can be washed by
hand using warm water and a little
washing-up liquid.
Make sure the metal discs (contacts)
at the top of the residual water
drawer are clean and dry. These
metal discs send a signal to the
steam ironing system when the
residual water drawer is full or if it is
inserted into the tower.
The discs will not function correctly if
they are dirty or damp.
 Slide the residual water drawer back
into the tower until it clicks into place.
Steam cannot be produced until the
empty residual water drawer is
replaced in the tower. Steam is only
available again when the message
Ready for use appears in the
display .
Descaling
The steam ironing system must be
descaled regularly to ensure that it
functions correctly. The steam ironing
system has an automatic descaling
function to assist you.
The interval for descaling depends on
the water hardness level set. Descaling
is required more frequently with hard
water than with soft water.
We recommend using the Miele
„FashionMaster descaling tablets“.
These have been specially
developed for use with Miele
appliances to optimise the descaling
process.
Other descaling agents, which
contain other acids besides citric
acid and/or other undesirable
substances, such as chlorides for
example, could damage the steam
ironing system. Moreover, the
required descaling effect cannot be
guaranteed.
You will need 1 descaling tablet to
descale the appliance.
Miele descaling tablets are available to
order from your Miele dealer (see
„Optional accessories“).
The iron or steamer must not be
connected during descaling of the
steam ironing system.
The steam ironing system can be left
unattended during descaling,
provided that the iron or steamer is
not connected.
