CLEANING THE OVEN AND ITS ACCESSORIES
After each use leave the oven to cool and clean it to
avoid the encrustations being repeatedly heated.
If the dirt is tough, use a specific oven cleaning
product following the instructions on the packaging.
Clean the outside with a sponge dampened with
lukewarm water.
Do not use abrasives or metal pads.
Clean the oven door glass with a liquid detergent.
Wash the accessories in the dishwasher or by hand
using an oven cleaning product.
If cooking lasts for a long time, or when cooking
simultaneously on several levels, food containing a
large amount of water (pizza, stuffed vegetables, etc.)
may create condensation on the inside of the door and
on the gasket; when the oven has cooled, dry with a
cloth or a sponge.
Additional information for appliances which
have an aluminium front:
The material has a sensitive surface. In order to avoid
scratches, only use a soft sponge and liquid cleaner to
clean the front of the appliance.
Removing the oven door
To remove the oven door, guide the lever (
A
) into the
hinge notch (
B
): close the door to its stop position and
pull out towards you.
Refit in the reverse order.
Changing the oven light bulb
Disconnect the oven from electrical supply.
To remove and replace the bulb, remove the cover (
H
).
Proceed as shown in the diagram opposite.
Use only E14 -25W - 300 °C bulbs.
Remember to replace the seal (
J
).
Self-cleaning system
This oven burns off splashes and deposits at high
temperature.
The smoke produced is cleaned by being passed through
a catalyser.
The self-cleaning system works more efficiently if operated
before the oven becomes too soiled, with a low energy
consumption.
However, it is not necessary to operate the self-cleaning
function each time the oven is used, but only if the oven is
splashed. For safety reasons, the self-cleaning function will
only operate following
automatic
locking of the oven door.
Once the internal temperature of the oven exceeds the
maximum cooking temperature, the door can no longer
be opened.
