Oven
The oven may be cleaned in a traditional mode (using oven cleaners and sprays).
Otherwise respect the following cleaning tips:
- Cool the oven completely before cleaning.
- The oven and the accessories must be cleaned after each use, otherwise stains can get
burned in.
- Oven walls, sprayed with oil from roasting,
are
best cleane
d
with warm water and
detergent when the oven is still tepid.
- Hard and heavily stained oven should be cleaned with special oven cleaning agents.
Rinse the cleaner thoroughly and remove any detergent remaining before the next use.
- Never use aggressive cleaners, like polishing agents, dish cleaning accessories,
corrosion inhibitors, or any other
products
that can cause scratches.
- Coated, stainless steel or zinc-coated surfaces or alumin
i
um parts must not come into
contact with oven sprays, since they might cause damage or discolo
u
ration. The same
goes for
the
thermostat probe (if the
oven
is equipped with it) and exposed
elements
on the
oven
ceiling.
- When purchasing cleaning agents remember the environment, and strictly follow the
manufacturer’s instructions.
