Maintenance and care
Important: The appliance should be disconnected from the mains
supply before starting cleaning operations.
To ensure a long life cycle for the appliance, it is essential to carry out a
thorough general clean frequently, while observing the following instructions:
Inside the oven door:
Clean the surface with a cloth moistened with hot water and non abrasive
liquid detergent, then rinse and dry thoroughly.
Inside the oven: *
• The inside of your oven is coated with a special self-cleaning microporous
enamel glaze which, at a normal cooking temperature of between 200
and 300°C, oxidises and completely eliminates all grease spots or other
substances that inevitably attack the inner walls of the oven. This way,
cleaning is kept right down to a minimum: as a matter of fact, you just need
to rub the surfaces of the oven with a wet cloth regularly, after cooking, to
remove the thin layer of ash that may have been deposited during cooking,
in order to maintain the self-cleaning property of the oven intact.
• After cooking where liquid has overflowed or when the dirt has not
been eliminated completely (for example when grilling food, and the
temperatures reached are not high enough for the full self-cleaning action
of the enamel to be performed), we recommend you leave the oven on
at maximum temperature so that all grease residue and the like are
eliminated.
• If, after long-term use, you find evident grease stains deposited on the
self-cleaning oven walls, probably due to your failing to follow the above
maintenance advice, clean the surfaces thoroughly with hot water and
a soft cloth (do not use any detergents), then rinse and dry thoroughly.
• Do not remove any dry caked-on grease using sharp objects, as these
could etch the self-cleaning coating.
• If the self-cleaning surfaces inside the oven are damaged or worn, due to
incorrect or poor maintenance or after many years of use, you can request
a kit of self-cleaning panels to line the inside of the oven. To order these,
just contact an authorised Service Centre.
Oven exterior:
• Only clean the appliance when the oven is cold.
• The steel parts and especially the areas with the screen-printed symbols
should not be cleaned with solvents or abrasive detergents. It is advisable
to use only a damp cloth with lukewarm water and washing up liquid.
Stainless steel may remain stained if in long-term contact with very
calcareous water or aggressive detergents (containing phosphorus).
It is therefore always necessary to rinse and dry all surfaces thoroughly
after cleaning.
Important: cleaning operations must be made horizontally, in the
direction of the steel glazing.
• After cleaning, any treatments to polish the surfaces may be performed:
only use specific products for stainless steel.
Important:
do not use abrasive powders, aggressive detergents or acidic
substances for cleaning.
Hob:
• The removable parts of the burners on the hob should be washed
frequently with warm water and soap, making sure to remove any caked-
on substances. Check that the gas outlet slits are not clogged. Dry the
burners carefully before using them again.
• Clean the end part of the automatic glow plug ignitors of the hob and gas
oven frequently.
Greasing the taps
As time passes, a tap may lock or become difficult to turn. In this case it will
be necessary to clean inside and replace the grease.
This procedure must
be performed by a technician authorized by the manufacturer.
Disassembling/assembling the oven door
To make it easier to clean the inside of your oven, the oven door can be
removed, by proceeding as follows:
• Open the door completely and lift the 2 levers “
B
”;
• Now, shutting the door slightly, you can lift it out by pulling out the hooks
“
A
” as shown in figure.
To reassemble the door:
• With the door in a vertical position, insert the two hooks “
A
” into the slots;
• Ensure that seat “
D
” is hooked perfectly onto the edge of the slot (move
the oven door backwards and forward slightly);
• Keep the oven door open fully, unhook the 2 levers “
B
” downwards and
then shut the door again.
Replacing the oven light bulb
Make sure that the appliance is
disconnected from the electricity
supply.
Unscrew the glass protective cover
from inside the oven, unscrew
the lightbulb and replace it with
an identical one suitable for high
temperatures (300°C) and with the
following characteristics:
- Voltage 230 V
- Wattage 15 W
- Type E 14.

Do not use the oven lamp as/for ambient lighting.
