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 panels, which look like
streaks, are caused by reflections made by the
interior lighting.
■
Enamel is baked on at very high temperatures.This
can cause some slight colour variation. This is
normal and does not affect operation.
The edges of thin trays cannot be completely
enamelled. As a result, these edges can be rough.
This does not impair the anti-corrosion protection.
Cleaning self-cleaning surfaces in the
cooking compartment
The back wall and side panels of the cooking
compartment are coated with a highly porous ceramic
layer. This coating absorbs and breaks down splashes
produced during baking and roasting while the oven is
in operation. The higher the temperature of the oven
and the longer the oven is in operation, the better the
result will be.
If there is still soiling after using oven several times,
proceed as follows:
1.
First clean the oven floor.
2.
Heat the empty oven at maximum temperature for
approximately 2 hours.
This will regenerate the ceramic coating. Brown and
black residue can then be removed with water and a
soft sponge.
Slight colour variations of the coating have no effect on
the self-cleaning function.
:
Warning – Risk of burns!
The appliance will become very hot on the outside
during the cleaning function. Never touch the appliance
door. Allow the appliance to cool down. Keep children
at a safe distance.
Caution!
■
Never use abrasive cleaners. This could scratch or
damage the highly porous surface coating.
■
Do not use oven cleaner on self-cleaning surfaces. If
oven cleaner is accidentally applied to these
surfaces, wipe it away immediately with a sponge
and plenty of water.
Keeping the appliance clean
Always keep the appliance clean and remove dirt
immediately so that stubborn deposits of dirt do not
build up.
:
Warning – Risk of fire!
Loose food remnants, fat and meat juices may catch
fire. Before using the appliance, remove the worst of the
food remnants from the cooking compartment, heating
elements and accessories.
Tips
■
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.
