Care and cleaning
Warning! Before any cleaning switch
the oven off and let it cool down. Never
use steam or steam machines to clean
the appliance. Important! Before
carrying out maintenance and cleaning
operations, make sure that your oven is
disconnected from the mains power
supply.
Cleaning must be carried out after the oven
has cooled down. Wash the enamelled parts
with lukewarm water and detergent. Do not
use abrasive products, such as steel wool
pads, acids etc. since these could damage
the various surfaces. Rinse stainless steel
parts with water after use, and dry them with
a soft cloth or chamois leather.
In the case of persistent stains, you can use
normal non-abrasive detergents or products
specific for stainless steel readily available on
the market. Another alternative is a drop of
hot vinegar. When cleaning the oven door
with the glass top cover use just hot water,
taking care to avoid using coarse cloths or
abrasive products
The hot acids of fruit (e.g. Iemons, stewed
prunes, etc.) leave difficult-to-remove stains
on the enamelled surfaces; this inconvenient
may remove enamel gloss, but, it does not
impair oven operation.
Clean the oven thoroughly after use; in this
way it will be possible to remove cooking re-
siduals more easily, thus avoiding these from
burning the next time the oven is used.
The oven door
Warning! Important - Remove the oven
door before cleaning it.
To do so, proceed as follows.
1. Open the door fully.
2. Locate the two door hinges.
3. Lift and turn the levers on the two hinges.
4. Hold the door by the side edges and
close it slowly but not COMPLETELY.
5. Pull the door forward, removing it from its
seat.
6. Place the door on a stable surface pro-
tected by a soft cloth to prevent the han-
dle surface from being damaged.
Warning! Do not clean the oven door
when it is still hot, as the glass could
shatter. If scratches or deep cracks are
noted on the surface of the glass,
contact the authorised Assistance
Centre for replacing the glass.
