Stainless steel cleaner that is suitable for the appliance can be ob-

To prevent corrosion, remove any patches of limescale, grease,
starch or albumin (e.g. egg white) from stainless steel surfaces im-
mediately. Corrosion may form under such stains.
Do not use oven spray or other aggressive oven cleaners or abras-
ive materials. Scouring pads, rough sponges and pan cleaners are
unsuitable. These items scratch the surface.
Always dry the cooking compartment after cleaning.

Undissolved detergent causes patches to appear when heat-

residues from detergents or care products using clean water before
drying the cooking compartment.
