19 Cleaning function "EcoClean"
Use the cleaning function "EcoClean" ​⁠ regularly to
help retain the cleaning ability of the self-cleaning sur-
faces and prevent damage.
The self-cleaning surfaces in the cooking compartment
are coated with a porous, matt ceramic layer and have
a rough surface. When the appliance is in operation,
the self-cleaning surfaces absorb splashes from roast-
ing or grilling and break them down.
The following surfaces are self-cleaning:
¡
Back wall
¡
Ceiling
¡
Side walls
ATTENTION!
If you do not clean the self-cleaning surfaces regularly,
they may become damaged.
▶
If dark stains are visible on the self-cleaning sur-
faces, use the cleaning function to clean the cook-
ing compartment.
▶
If a prompt to clean appears in the display, use the
cleaning function to clean the cooking compart-
ment.
▶
Do not use oven cleaner or abrasive cleaning aids.
If oven cleaner accidentally comes into contact with
the self-cleaning surfaces, dab it off immediately us-
ing water and a sponge cloth. Do not rub.
19.1 Cleaning recommendation
The appliance records the type and duration of the op-
eration and, if required, recommends which cleaning
function to use.
When you switch on the appliance, a notification ap-
pears on the display stating that you should use the
cleaning function. Start the cleaning function as soon
as possible.
You can use your appliance as normal. However, the
cleaning recommendation appears on the display until
you have run the cleaning function in full.
Note: If the appliance is prematurely contaminated, e.g.
by greasy poultry or roasts, or if dark spots appear on
the self-cleaning surfaces, do not wait until the notifica-
tion appears on the display before you use the clean-
ing functions. The more often you use the cleaning
function, the longer the cleaning ability of the self-clean-
ing surfaces is retained.
19.2 Preparing the appliance for the
cleaning function

appliance carefully.

Using oven cleaner on the self-cleaning surfaces dam-
ages the surfaces.
▶
Do not use oven cleaner on the self-cleaning sur-
faces. If oven cleaner does get onto these surfaces,

ive cleaning aids.
