handle.
Preparation
Take all accessories and ovenware out of the oven.
ã=
Risk of serious damage to health.!
Never use pyrolytic cleaning for cleaning non-stick baking trays
and baking tins. High temperatures damage the non-stick
coating and poisonous gases are released.
ã=
Risk of fire!
Loose food residues, grease and meat juices may catch fire.
Wipe the oven floor, the inside of the oven door and the edges
around the front of the oven with a damp cloth. Do not scour
the oven seal.
It is sufficient to clean the cooking compartment every two to
three months. Cleaning only requires approximately 3.8 kilowatt
hours.

the appliance cool down.
Notes
■
Slight differences in colour on the front of the appliance are
caused by the use of different materials, such as glass,
plastic and metal.
■
Shadows on the door panel which 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 colour variations. This is normal and does
not affect their function. The edges of thin trays cannot be
completely enamelled. As a result, these edges can be
rough. This will not impair the anti-corrosion protection.
■
Unpleasant odours, e.g. after fish has been prepared, can be
removed very easily. Add a few drops of lemon juice to a cup
of water. Place a spoon into the container as well, to prevent
delayed boiling. Heat the water for 1 to 2 minutes at
maximum microwave power.
Cleaning agents
To ensure that the different surfaces are not damaged by using
the wrong cleaning agent, observe the information in the table.

■
sharp or abrasive cleaning agents,
■
metal or glass scrapers to clean the glass in the appliance
door,
