Cleaning and care of the oven

Cleaning the oven
compartment with Self Clean
Instead of cleaning the oven
compartment by hand, you can run the
Self Clean
function.
During the Self Clean function, the oven
compartment reaches temperatures in
excess of 750°F (400°C). Any grime that
has accumulated will be broken down
and burnt to ash as a result of the high
temperatures.
There are 3 Self Clean settings
available, each with a different duration:
- Level 1 for light soiling
- Level 2 for heavier soiling
- Level 3 for very heavy soiling
The oven door is automatically locked
when the Self Clean process starts. It
cannot be opened until after the
program has finished.
The timer can be used to delay the start
time of the Self Clean program.
At the end of the Self Clean program, any
residues such as ash from the cleaning
process, which are formed depending on
the oven compartment’s degree of
soiling, can be easily wiped away.
Preparing for Self Clean
Accessories that are not suitable for
the Self Clean program will be
damaged by the high temperatures.
Remove all accessories that are not
suitable for the Self Clean program
from the oven compartment before
starting the Self Clean process. This
also applies for optional accessories
that are not suitable for the Self
Clean program.
The following accessories are suitable
for the Self Clean program and can be
left in the oven compartment during the
process:
– Side runners
– FlexiClips with Wire Rack
HFCBBR 30-2
– Wire rack HBBR 30-2
Remove all accessories that are not
suitable for the Self Clean program
from the oven.
Slide the wire rack into the top shelf
level.
Coarse soiling in the oven
compartment can cause thick smoke
to develop.
Burnt-on residues can cause lasting
discoloration or dull spots on
enameled surfaces.
Before starting the Self Clean
program, remove coarse soiling from
the oven compartment and scrape
any burnt-on residues off enameled
surfaces with a glass scraper.
Starting Self Clean
