Cleaning and Care
Important cleaning basics:
❑
For cleaning, do not use abrasives, corrosive cleaners, aerosol cleaners or sharp objects.
❑
Do not scratch off burnt-on food residues, but soak off them with a damp cloth and
washing up liquid.
❑
Oven cleaners must not be used on aluminium or plastic parts.
Stainless steel front:
❑
When using commercially available
Stainless Steel cleaning agents, avoid
cleaning any lettering, as this can
become damaged!
❑
Do not use any scouring pads or
abrasive cleaners.
❑
Use commercially available detergents
applied with a soft, moistened cloth or a
chamois.
Enamel and glass:
❑
Use hot detergent suds for cleaning.
❑
Remove the oven door before cleaning
the enamel surface.
Oven interior:
❑
Clean the oven after each use,
especially after roasting or grilling.
Food remnants burn in when the oven is
reheated.
The baked in remnants are very difficult
to remove once burnt in.
❑
You can reduce the degree of soiling by
greater use of the circotherm.
Do not clean the warm oven with any
of the cleaning products specifically
designed for this purpose.
❑
When baking very moist cake (e.g. rich
fruit cake) that could drip over the top of
the tin, place on the roasting pan or
your own baking sheet.
❑
When roasting, ensure that the meat
juices do not splash on to the base of
the oven.
❑
Clean the oven before soiling becomes
too heavy. Wash out the oven cavity
with hot detergent suds. Leave the door
open until the interior has dried.
