Surfaces in the cooking compartment

The back wall and side parts in the cooking compartment are 

self-cleaning. You can tell this from the rough surface.
The cooking compartment floor and ceiling are enamelled and 

have smooth surfaces.

Cleaning enamelled surfaces

Clean the smooth enamelled surfaces with a dish cloth and hot 

soapy water or a vinegar solution. Then dry with a soft cloth.
Soften baked-on food residues with a damp cloth and soapy 

water. Use stainless steel wire wool or oven cleaner to remove 

stubborn dirt.
Leave the cooking compartment open to dry after cleaning.

Note: 

Food residues can cause white deposits to form. These 

are harmless and do not affect how the appliance works. You 

can remove these residues using lemon juice if required.

Cleaning self-cleaning surfaces

The self-cleaning surfaces are coated with a porous, matte 

ceramic layer. This coating absorbs and dispels splashes from 

baking and roasting while the appliance is in operation.
If the self-cleaning surfaces no longer clean themselves 

sufficiently and dark stains appear, they can be cleaned using 

the cleaning function. To do this, refer to the information in the 

relevant section. 

Caution!

Do not use oven cleaner on self-cleaning surfaces. This will 

damage the surfaces. If oven cleaner does get onto these 

surfaces, dab it off immediately using water and a sponge 

cloth. Do not rub the surface and do not use abrasive cleaning 

aids. 

Detaching and refitting the rails

The rails can be removed for cleaning. The oven must have 

cooled down.

Unhooking the rails

1.

Hold the bottom of the rail and pull it towards you a little. Pull 

the extension pins at the bottom of the rail out of the 

fastening openings (figure A).

2.

Then pull the rail upwards and remove it (figure B).

Clean the rails with washing-up liquid and a sponge. Use a 

brush to remove stubborn dirt deposits.

Hooking in the rails

1.

Place the two hooks at the top of the rail into the upper holes.

2.

Both hooks must be inserted fully into the upper holes. Now 

move the rail down slowly and carefully and hook it into the 

lower holes.

3.

Hook both rails into the side walls of the oven.

Keeping the appliance clean

Always keep the appliance clean and remove dirt immediately 

so that stubborn deposits of dirt do not build up.
Clean the cooking compartment after each use. This will ensure 

that dirt cannot be baked on.
Always remove flecks of limescale, grease, starch and albumin 

(e.g. egg white) immediately.
Use the universal pan for baking very moist cakes.
Use suitable ovenware for roasting, e.g. a roasting dish.

Appliance door

Appliance door

With good care and cleaning, your appliance will retain its 

appearance and remain fully functional for a long time to come. 

This will tell you how to clean the appliance door.

Detaching and attaching the oven door

For cleaning purposes and to remove the door panels, you can 

detach the oven door.
The oven door hinges each have a locking lever. When the 

locking levers are closed (figure A), the oven door is secured in 

place. It cannot be detached. When the locking levers are open 

in order to detach the oven door (figure B), the hinges are 

locked. They cannot snap shut.

Risk of injury!

Whenever the hinges are not locked, they snap shut with great 
force. Ensure that the locking levers are always fully closed or, 
when detaching the oven door, fully open.

Detaching the door

1.

Open the oven door fully.

2.

Fold up the two locking levers on the left and right (figure A).

3.

Close the oven door as far as the limit stop. With both hands, 

grip the door on the left and right-hand sides. Close the door 

a little further and pull it out (figure B).
