Cleaning the oven
CAUTION!
Risk of burns!
■
Allow the oven to cool completely
before cleaning.
■
Never pour water directly onto the
hot oven. The steam produced can
cause scalding and damage to the
enamel.
■
Allow hot water from the oven to
cool before pouring it out.
■
Only change the oven light bulb
when the oven has cooled down.
NOTICE
Improper cleaning may lead to dam-
age.
■
For cleaning purposes, do not
use any harsh, abrasive cleaning
agents or scouring agents, steel
wool, metal scrapers, oven sprays,
steam cleaners or high-pressure
cleaners! They can damage the
surface and destroy the glass.
■
High-pressure cleaners can cause
a short circuit.
Cleaning the housing surface
– After cooling, thoroughly clean the surfac-
es with warm rinsing water or all-purpose
cleaner.
– For stainless steel surfaces, you can also
use special care products made just for
stainless steel surfaces.
Cleaning the cooking
compartment
– Only switch on the cooking compartment
light for cleaning.
– Clean the cooking compartment and bak-
ing trays after every use if possible, and
rinse with warm water.
– Clean the door seal in the same way, but
be very careful as it is only attached in cer-
tain places, and is otherwise loose.
Steam cleaning
Steam cleaning is a wet cleaning process
that uses steam to remove light stains and
dirt. That’s how you clean the cooking com-
partment in an energy-efficient manner while
conserving materials.
1. Remove the oven rack and baking tray.
2. Slide the dripping pan into the lowest rack
level and pour about 0.5 litres of water
into it.
3. Turn the dial to top and bottom heat and
the temperature controller to 100°C.
4. After 30 minutes of operation, switch the
oven off again and allow everything to
cool down so that the oven walls are only
lukewarm.
5. Use potholders or something similar to re-
move the dripping pan from the oven and
pour out the remaining water.
6. Wipe the cooking compartment off with a
damp cloth or sponge.
7. Rinse off the oven rack, baking tray and
dripping pan.
