Risk of burns from hot surfaces!
Allow the appliance and the accessories to cool down before cleaning them.
Damage to the appliance from incorrect treatment!
Do not use any abrasive or caustic cleaning agents, metal scrapers that are sharp
or scratch, steel wool, abrasive scouring pads, etc. These products will damage
the surfaces. Glass surfaces that are scratched can crack.

dampened with water and a little washing-up liquid. Wipe dry with a soft cloth.
In the case of appliances without pyrolysis:
▸ Use a commercially available oven cleaner and follow the manufacturer’s instructions.
Never clean appliances with pyrolysis using oven cleaner
as the surface could otherwise be damaged.
