14 Cleaning functions
You can use the cleaning functions to clean the appli-
ance.
14.1 Self-cleaning function
The "Self-cleaning" function cleans the cooking com-
partment virtually automatically.
Use this cleaning function to clean the cooking com-
partment every 2 to 3 months. You can use the clean-
ing function more often, if required. The cleaning func-
tion requires approx. 2.5 - 4.7 kilowatt hours.
