ATTENTION!

Incorrect cleaning may damage the front of the appli-

Do not use glass cleaner, metal scrapers or glass

To prevent corrosion on stainless steel fronts, re-
move any limescale, grease, starch and albumin
(e.g. egg white) stains immediately.

On stainless steel surfaces, use special stainless
steel cleaning products suitable for hot surfaces.

2.

Clean the front of the appliance using hot soapy wa-
ter and a dish cloth.

Note: 

Slight differences in colour on the front of the

appliance are caused by the use of different materi-
als, such as glass, plastic and metal.

3.

For stainless steel appliance fronts, apply a thin
layer of the stainless steel cleaning product with a
soft cloth.
You can obtain the stainless steel cleaning products
from the after-sales service or the online shop.

terior lighting.

9.8 humidClean

The cleaning aid is a quick alternative for occasionally
cleaning the cooking compartment. The cleaning aid
softens dirt by vaporising the soapy water. The dirt can
then be removed more easily.

water.

ment.

Set the cooking time to 3 minutes.
