Cleaning the cooking compartment
Caution!
Risk of damaging the surface. Do not clean the appliance while
still warm, even if using oven cleaners specially intended for
this purpose.
Notes
■
Enamel is baked on at very high temperatures during
manufacture. This can cause some slight colour variation.
This is normal and does not affect proper functioning.
■
The edges of thin trays cannot be completely enamelled. As
a result, these edges can be rough. Anti-corrosion protection
is still guaranteed, however.
Keeping the appliance clean
To avoid getting the cooking compartment dirty,
■
clean the cooking compartment after each use, as dirt will
bake on the next time it is heated up, and this can only be
removed with difficulty
■
always remove flecks of limescale, grease, starch and
albumin (e.g. egg white) immediately
■
use
3
CircoTherm® whenever possible. This operating
mode creates less dirt
■
Use the universal pan to bake very moist cakes
■
use suitable ovenware when roasting (e.g. roasting dish) or a
roasting sheet (see section: Accessories)
Descaling
You can descale your appliance at any time. However, you
must descale the appliance at regular intervals. Otherwise, you
eventually will not be able to cook using steam. The lit
Í
symbol reminds you to do this.
After starting a steam-assisted application, the
Í
symbol lights
up for a short time and
†
appears in the temperature display.
This number tells you how many steam-assisted applications
(e.g. 5) you can run before you must descale your appliance.
You can therefore prepare for the descaling in good time.
The descaling programme (duration approx. 40 minutes)
consists of the following sequences:
■
Descaling
■
1st rinse
■
2nd rinse
The descaling programme must be run through completely so
that the appliance can be ready for operation again. It cannot
be interrupted by the
„
Stop button.
If the descaling process is interrupted (for example, due to a
power failure or because the appliance is switched off), you are
prompted to continue with the descaling programme after the
appliance is switched back on. The programme continues by
repeating the interrupted process (for example, 1st rinse).
Caution!
■
Damage to the appliance: Only use the descaling tablets
that are recommended by us to descale the appliance. Other
descalers may damage the appliance.

■
Risk of surface damage: Do not allow descaling solution to
come into contact with the control panel or other sensitive
surfaces. If this does happen, remove the descaling solution
immediately with water.
Start the descaling programme.
The descaling programme can only be started once the
cooking compartment has completely cooled down. There must
be no residual heat (
œ
or
•
) shown in the display.
If you have cooked using steam immediately before descaling,
you must first switch the appliance off so that the residual water
is pumped out of the evaporator system.
1.
Dissolve the descaling tablets in water to make a descaling
solution.
Note:
Follow the manufacturer's instructions for the descaling
tablets.
2.
Switch on the appliance.
3.
Press and hold the
Í
descaling button for 3 seconds.
š†™
appears in the temperature display and the
Í
and
Î
symbols light up.
4.
Fill the water tank with 400 ml of descaling solution and slide
it in fully. Dispose of the rest of the descaling solution and
rinse with water.
5.
Press the
ƒ
Start button.
The
ƒ
symbol lights up Descaling starts.
Notes
■
If the water tank has not been filled, a signal sounds and the
Descale programme does not start. Fill the water tank with
the descaling solution and slide it in fully.
■
If a signal sounds and the
ƒ
symbol flashes, this indicates
that the
ƒ
Start button has not been pressed. Press the
ƒ
Start button.
■
The clock display shows how long the Descale programme
has left to run.

Enamel surfaces (smooth surfaces)
To facilitate cleaning, you can switch on the interior lighting and detach the appliance
door if necessary.
Apply commercially available washing-up liquid or a vinegar solution with a soft, damp
cloth or chamois; dry with a soft cloth.
Loosen baked on food residues with a damp cloth and detergent.
We recommend using oven cleaning gel if the oven is very dirty. This can be applied
neat to the affected area.
Leave the cooking compartment open to dry after cleaning.
