CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
Prior to taking any action for cleaning, make sure the apparatus is cut-out from the
mains.
It is recommended that the oven interior be frequently cleaned. In particular, it should be
cleaned every time the grill is used to prevent excessive fouling of the oven interior that
may generate fumes or odours during subsequent cooking. Abrasive detergents and
steam cleaning equipment should not be used for cleaning.
WARNING
Do not use harsh abrasive cleaners or sharp metal scrapers to
clean the oven door glass since they can scratch the surface,
which may result in shattering of the glass.
Ovens provided with the hot air system are less subject to dirt inside.
Self-cleaning cycle (pyrolytic cycles)
Although it is not necessary to perform the cleaning operation each time the oven has
been used, do not let the oven get too dirty.
Before performing self-cleaning, take out all accessories (grills, dishes, pans) to avoid
damaging them, remove large cooking residues and then close the door,
ensuring that it is closed properly.
NOTE
Usually self-cleaning requires 2.30 to 3 hours according to the
amount of residue to be removed.
WARNING
Ensure that the door is in the closed position before the self-
cleaning cycle starts, otherwise automatic door locking will
not be completed. See paragraphs that follows.
When the cycle is finished and the oven has
COOLED COMPLETELY
, remove the
burned-off residues of the self-cleaning cycle with a damp cloth.
