16.12 Cleaning self-cleaning surfaces
The rear panel of the cooking compartment has a self-
cleaning, catalytic coating. This coating absorbs and
dispels splashes from baking and roasting while the
appliance is in operation. It is therefore not necessary
for you to clean this area.
ATTENTION!
Using oven cleaner on the self-cleaning surfaces dam-
ages the surfaces.
▶
Do not use oven cleaner on the self-cleaning sur-
faces. 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 abras-
ive cleaning aids.
Requirement:
The cooking compartment has cooled
down.
▶
Brownish or whitish residues can be removed with
water and a soft sponge.
Note:
During operation, reddish spots form on the sur-
faces. This is not rust, but residues from food. These
spots are not harmful and do not impair the cleaning
ability of the self-cleaning surfaces.

Descaling
To ensure that your appliance continues to operate cor-
rectly, it must be descaled regularly.
How frequently you need to run the descaling pro-
gramme depends on the water hardness and how
many times you have used the steam-assisted opera-
tions. By showing on the display, the appliance in-
dicates when only another 5 or fewer steam-assisted
operations are possible. If you do not carry out descal-
ing, you can no longer set any operation with steam.
Descaling will take around 32 minutes in total.
Descaling consists of two automatic steps.
¡
Descaling, duration approx. 31 minutes
¡
Rinse cycle after descaling, duration approx. 1 mi-
nute
For reasons of hygiene, the descaling programme must
be run in full.
If you interrupt the descaling programme, you can no
longer set any operation with steam. To ensure that the
appliance is ready for operation again, run the rinse
cycle.
