Danger of burning!
Make sure the oven heating
elements are switched off and that
the oven cavity is cool.
Danger of injury!
The steam from a steam cleaning
appliance could reach electrical
components and cause a short
circuit.
Do not use a steam cleaner to clean
the oven.
All surfaces can become discoloured
or damaged if unsuitable cleaning
agents are used. The front of the
oven, in particular, will be damaged
by oven cleaners and descaling
agents.
All surfaces are susceptible to
scratching. Scratches on glass
surfaces may cause a breakage.
Remove any cleaning agent residues
immediately.
Unsuitable cleaning agents
To avoid damaging the surfaces of your
appliance, do not use:
– cleaning agents containing soda,
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 tools
– steel wool or metal scourers
– spot cleaning with mechanical
cleaning agents
