Cleaning the oven cavity
Before cleaning the oven, remove the baking trays, the grid, and the guides. Then, pull the grill element
towards yourself. Pull the element until the crossbar is released from the supports on the left and right
side of the oven. After cleaning, replace the element following the same procedure; the crossbar must
be reinserted into the two support brackets.
Cavity
• Clean the interior of the oven with hot soapy water and wipe down with a damp cloth.
• Leave the door open until the interior is dry, before replacing the telescopic rack guide and easy
clean inserts.
Accessories
• Wash the accessories (baking trays, wire rack, etc.) with hot water and some conventional detergent.
Easy-clean inserts
• After each use, clean the easy-clean inserts in water with some detergent, using a soft brush, or
wash them in a dishwasher.
Special enamel coating
• The oven, interior side of the door, and baking trays, are covered with special enamel that has a
smooth and resistant surface. This special layer enables easier cleaning at room temperature.
Catalytic layer
• Catalytic enamel is soft and sensitive to mechanical stress; therefore, the use of abrasive cleaners
and sharp objects is not recommended.
• Coarse catalytic enamel speeds up the disintegration of grease and other types of impurity.
Minor stains that remain after cooking normally disintegrate by the time the oven is used for the
next time. In general, the stains will disappear at temperatures above 220°C, while with lower
temperatures they will disappear only in part.
