Self-cleaning
During the self-cleaning function, the oven heats to about
500 °C. In this way, baking and cooking remains are burned
and only ash remains have to be cleaned from the oven.
There are three cleaning levels available.
The more intense and old the dirt, the higher the self cleaning
level used. The inside of the oven only has to be cleaned once
every two or three months. Complete cleaning requires
approximately 2.5 - 4.7 kilowatt-hours.
Important notes
For your safety, the oven door locks automatically. The oven
door cannot be opened again until the cooking compartment
has cooled slightly and the padlock symbol for the locking
mechanism disappears.
The oven light in the cooking compartment does not come on
during Self-cleaning.

■ The cooking compartment will become very hot during the
Self-cleaning cycle. Never open the appliance door or move
the locking latch by hand. Allow the appliance to cool

Before using the self-clean function
The oven must be empty. Remove accessories, pans, guides or
left and right hand side rails. See the Cleaning and Care
chapter to release the guides or left and right hand side rails.
Clean the oven door and the side surfaces inside the oven
around the area with seals.
: Risk of fire!!
The remains of food and grease as well as roasting juices can
catch fire. Use a damp cloth to clean the inside of the oven and
the accessories that will be cleaned inside the oven.
Cleaning of the accessories
The wire shelves or left and right hand side rails are not
suitable for self cleaning. Remove these from the oven.
For optimum cleaning of the oven interior, it is recommended
that the self-clean function is not used with the trays. However,
with the accessory support, the universal deep enamel tray or
the flat enamel oven tray can also be cleaned using the self-
clean function. Only clean one accessory at a time.
The shelf should not be cleaned using the self-clean function.
If your oven does not have this support, it can be purchased
from the Technical Assistance Service or over the Internet by
quoting part number 466546.
The accessory support is inserted to the right and left.
Use water to clean food remains, oil and roasting juices from
the accessories.
Place the universal deep tray or the flat oven tray on the
support.
: Significant health risks!
Do not place non-stick baking tins or trays in the oven during
self-cleaning. The intense heat removes the non-stick surface
and creates toxic gases.
