Cleaning and care

Important information on
cleaning and care
Risk of injury caused by hot
surfaces.
The steam oven gets hot during
operation. You could burn yourself
on the heater elements, oven
compartment, side runners or
accessories.
Allow the heater elements, oven
compartment, side runners and the
accessories to cool before manual
cleaning.
Risk of injury due to electric
shock.
The steam from a steam cleaning
appliance could reach live electrical
components and cause a short
circuit.
Do not use a steam cleaner to clean
the steam oven.
Surfaces can discolour or alter if
unsuitable cleaning agents are used.
The front of the steam oven is
particularly susceptible to damage
from oven cleaners and descaling
agents.
All surfaces are susceptible to
scratching. Scratches on glass can in
some circumstances lead to
breakage.
Remove all cleaning agent residues
immediately.
Stubborn soiling could damage the
steam oven in certain circumstances.
Once the oven has cooled, clean the
oven compartment, the inside of the
door and the door seal. Waiting too
long can make cleaning
unnecessarily difficult and in some
cases impossible.
Do not use commercial cleaning
agents. Only use agents designed for
domestic use.
Do not use cleaning agents or
washing-up liquids containing
aliphatic hydrocarbons as these
could cause the seals to swell.
The steam oven and accessories
should be cleaned and dried
thoroughly after each use.
Leave the appliance door open until
the oven compartment is completely
dry.
If the steam oven is not going to be
used for a longer period of time, it
should be thoroughly cleaned and
dried beforehand to prevent the build-
up of odours and so on. Leave the
door open afterwards.
