Cleaning and care
You should carefully read this chapter before you use your appliance the first
time. If cleaned correctly and looked after regularly the appliance will remain
beautiful and clean for many years. Here you will find tips concerning the
careful cleaning and of the individual surfaces and how to look after them.
For all surfaces

Steam and/or pressure cleaning machines must not be used to clean the

Clean the appliance each time you use it. Not removed dirt will burn into the
surface the next time you switch it on and these incrustations can often not
be removed anymore.
Use a damp cloth or a soft sponge with warm water containing a small amount
of detergent to clean light amounts of dirt from the surface. Always wipe off
the surface completely with cold water to remove cleaning agents residues
which could cause discolouring and stains. Wipe dry afterwards.

sealings with the edge.

Pease follow the instructions of the manufacturer. Oven sprays damage
aluminium, lacquered surfaces and plastic!

For environmental reasons you should not use oven spray at all. If you
nevertheless want to use it, only spray it in the oven interior and on enamel
baking trays.
