Notes on Preserving

Use the universal tray for preserving. There is room on this tray for up
to 8 preserving jars of 1 litre capacity.
• Pour two cups of water onto the universal tray to ensure that there is
sufficient humidity in the oven.
•
Position the preserving jars on the universal tray such that they do
not touch each other.

Cleaning and Care
The Exterior of the Appliance
�
Wipe the front of the appliance with a soft cloth and warm water with
washing up liquid.
•
Do not use scourers, caustic cleaners or abrasive items.
•
The stainless steel design fronts of the appliances have a protective
sealing; you may hence
not
use any commercially available cleaning
agents for stainless steel since these agents will destroy the protec-
tive sealing.
•
Remove scale, fat, starch and egg-white marks from stainless steel
surfaces as soon as possible. Otherwise corrosion can occur under
these marks due the lack of air.
Oven Interior
Oven Lighting
You can switch on the oven light to make cleaning easier.

with a little vinegar added.
2.
Then rub the oven dry with a cloth.
3.
Remove stubborn marks with special oven cleaner.
Warning!
