Notes
■
Slight differences in colour on the front of the
appliance are caused by the use of different
materials, such as glass, plastic and metal.
■
Shadows on the door panels, which look like
streaks, are caused by reflections made by the
interior lighting.
■
Enamel is baked on at very high temperatures.This
can cause some slight colour variation. This is
normal and does not affect operation.
The edges of thin trays cannot be completely
enamelled. As a result, these edges can be rough.
This does not impair the anti-corrosion protection.
Keeping the appliance clean
Always keep the appliance clean and remove dirt
immediately so that stubborn deposits of dirt do not
build up.
:
Warning – Risk of fire!
Loose food remnants, fat and meat juices may catch
fire. Before using the appliance, remove the worst of the
food remnants from the cooking compartment, heating
elements and accessories.
Tips
■
Clean the cooking compartment after each use. This
will ensure that dirt cannot be baked on.
■
Always remove flecks of limescale, grease, starch
and albumin (e.g. egg white) immediately.
■
Use the universal pan for baking very moist cakes.
■
Use suitable ovenware for roasting, e.g. a roasting
dish.

Cleaning function
Cleaning function
Your appliance is equipped with the "Self-cleaning" and
"Descaling" operating modes.You can use the "Self-
cleaning" operating mode to clean the cooking
compartment effortlessly. You can use the "Descaling"
operating mode to remove limescale from the
evaporator.
Self-cleaning
The cooking compartment is heated up to a very high
temperature. Residues from roasting, grilling and
baking will burn.
You can choose from three cleaning settings.
The dirtier the cooking compartment and the longer the
dirt has been there, the higher the cleaning setting
should be. A cleaning cycle requires only approx. 2.5 –
4.7 kilowatt hours.
Note:
For your safety, the cooking compartment door
locks automatically. It cannot be opened again until the
H
symbol for the locking mechanism goes out in the
status bar. The interior lighting remains off during
cleaning.
