Cleaning the self cleaning surfaces in the oven interior
The inside rear and side walls and ceiling of some ovens may
be lined with a highly porous ceramic lining. This lining absorbs
splashes produced during baking and roasting, dissolving them
while the oven is on. This cleaning will be most effective at
higher temperatures and during longer cooking times.
If the "self-cleaning side walls" are purchased as an optional
accessory at a later date, the self-cleaning surfaces can be
regenerated using the clean function. See the Clean function
chapter.
Slight discolouration of the lining does not affect its self-
cleaning performance.
Caution!
■
Do not use abrasive cleaning products. These would scratch
and impair the highly porous lining.
■
Never use oven cleaning products on ceramics. If oven
cleaner is spilled on this accidentally, immediately remove it
using lots of water and a sponge.
Cleaning the oven's enamelled bottom and walls
Use a cleaning cloth and hot water with a little soap or vinegar.
If very dirty, use a fine steel scourer or a special oven cleaning
product. These must only be used when the oven interior is
cold. Do not use metal scourers or special oven cleaning
products on self-cleaning surfaces.
Removing the grill heating element
The grill heating element can be removed in some ovens to
facilitate cleaning.

The wire shelves or left and right hand side rails can be
removed for cleaning. The oven must be cold.
