stainless steel
Hot soapy water:
Clean with a dish cloth and dry with a
soft cloth. Remove flecks of limescale,
grease, starch and albumin (e.g. egg

under such residues. Special stainless
steel cleaning agents can be obtained
from the after-sales service or from spe-
cialist shops. Do not use glass cleaners
or metal or glass scrapers for cleaning.
Cooking compart-
ment made of stain-
less steel
Hot soapy water or a vinegar solution:
Clean with a dish cloth and dry with a

If the oven is very dirty: use oven
cleaner, but only when cooking com-
partment is cold. It is best to use a stain-
less-steel sponge. Do not use oven
spray or other aggressive oven cleaners
or abrasive materials. Scouring pads,
rough sponges and pan cleaners are
also unsuitable. These items scratch the
surface. Allow the interior surfaces to
dry thoroughly.
