General cleaning
Before carrying out any maintenance
or cleaning operation, make sure the
appliance is cold and disconnected
from the power supply.
Do not use steam or steam
appliances to clean the oven.
• If using spray products
never direct the
spray on the electric heating coils (clearly
visible in the top part of the oven) or the
thermostat bulb located at the top back.
Cleaning the inside of the oven
Clean the enameled parts with lukewarm water,
detergent and a soft sponge. DO NOT use scouring
pads, steel wool or acids (e.g. descaling products),
as they could damage the enamel.
After cleaning, rinse thoroughly and dry with a soft
cloth or shammy leather.
In case of stubborn stains, do not use abrasive
detergents (e.g. powders). Use normal detergents
or a cloth moistened with hot vinegar, leaving it on
the stain for a while.
Fruit contains acids which, becoming hot
during cooking, can form stains that are
very hard to clean. This can make the
enamel duller, but
does not affect oven
operation.
To prevent these stains, always
clean the oven after cooking fruit. This will
avoid the possibility of any cooking
residuals burning during subsequent
cooking.
