10.2 Cleaning the appliance

Clean the appliance as specified. This will ensure that
the different parts and surfaces of the appliance are
not damaged by incorrect cleaning or unsuitable clean-
ing products.

The appliance and its parts that can be touched be-
come hot during use.

Caution should be exercised here in order to avoid
touching heating elements.

Young children under 8 years of age must be kept
away from the appliance.

WARNING ‒ Risk of fire!

Loose food remnants, fat and meat juices may catch
fire.

Before using the appliance, remove the worst of the
food residues and remnants from the cooking com-
partment, heating elements and accessories.

WARNING ‒ Risk of injury!

Scratched glass in the appliance door may develop

(e.g. egg white) stains immediately.

On stainless steel surfaces, use special stainless
steel cleaning products suitable for hot surfaces.

For stainless steel appliance fronts, apply a thin
layer of the stainless steel cleaning product with a
soft cloth.
You can obtain the stainless steel cleaning products
from the after-sales service or the online shop.
