CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

With good care and cleaning, your oven will remain clean and fully-functioning for a long time to come. Here we will explain how to maintain and clean your oven correctly.

Notes

• Slight differences in the colors on the front of the oven are caused by the use of different materials, such as glass, plastic and metal.
• Shadows on the door panel that look like streaks, are caused by reflections made by the oven light.
• Enamel is baked on at very high temperatures. This can cause some slight color variation. This is normal and does not affect operation. The edges of thin trays cannot be completely enameled. As a result, these edges can be rough. This will not impair the anticorrosion protection.

WARNING RISK OF ELECTRICAL SHOCK

Moisture entering the appliance can cause an electrical shock. Don't use a high-pressure cleaner or steam cleaner.

WARNING RISK OF BURNS

The appliance becomes very hot. Never touch the hot inside surfaces of the oven interior or heating elements. Always allow the appliance to cool down.

Keep children away.

Cleaning agents

Observe the following information to ensure that the different surfaces are not damaged by using the wrong type of cleaning agent.

Do not use:

• any harsh or abrasive cleaning agents,
• cleaning agents with a high concentration of alcohol,
• hard scouring pads or sponges,
• high-pressure cleaners or steam cleaners.

Wash new sponge cloths thoroughly before use.

Catalytic cooking compartment panels

The catalytic cooking compartment panels are coated with self-cleaning enamel.

The surfaces clean themselves while the oven is in operation. Larger splashes will only be removed after the oven has been used several times.

Self-cleaning surfaces

The rear and side walls are covered with catalytic paneling. So not use oven cleaner on the catalytic panels. Slight discoloration of the enamel does not affect self-cleaning.

Removing and installing the door panels

To facilitate cleaning, you can remove the glass panels from the oven door.

Removing the door panels

1. Open the oven door fully.
2. Lock both hinges on the left and right using a locking pin.

3. Lift the bottom of the inner panel slightly until the fastening pins come out of the holder (1).

4. Carefully lift the top of the inner panel until the fastening pins come out of the holder (2).

CAUTION When lifting the inner panel, the middle panel may stick to the inner panel. Make sure that the middle panel does not fall.
