Unsuitable cleaning agents
To avoid damaging the surfaces of your
appliance, do not use:
– cleaning agents containing soda,
alkalines, ammonia, acids or
chlorides
– cleaning agents containing descaling
agents on the oven front
– abrasive cleaning agents, e.g.
powder cleaners and cream cleaners
– solvent-based cleaning agents
– stainless steel cleaning agents
– dishwasher cleaner
– glass cleaning agents
– cleaning agents for ceramic cooktops
– hard, abrasive brushes or sponges,
e.g. pot scourers, brushes or
sponges which have been previously
used with abrasive cleaning agents
– dirt erasers
– sharp metal scrapers
– steel wool or metal scourers
– spot cleaning with mechanical
cleaning agents
– Oven cleaners *
– stainless-steel spiral pads
* These can, however, be used to
remove very heavy soiling from
PerfectClean treated surfaces
If soiling is left on for any length of
time, it may become impossible to
remove. If items are used frequently
without being cleaned, it may
become very difficult to clean them.
Remove any soiling immediately.
Only the glass tray is dishwasher
proof.
Useful tip:
Soiling caused by spilled
fruit juices and cake mixtures is best
removed while the oven is still warm.
Exercise caution and make sure the
oven is not too hot.
To make it easier to clean the oven:
Lower the grill element.
To neutralise odours in the oven
compartment, put a container of
water with some lemon juice in the
oven and heat for a few minutes.
