Cleaning the self-cleaning surfaces in the cooking
compartment
The back wall, ceiling and side walls of the cooking
compartment are coated with a highly porous ceramic layer.
This coating absorbs and disintegrates splashes from baking
and roasting while the oven is in operation. The higher the
temperature and the longer the oven is in operation, the better
the result will be.
Never treat the self-cleaning surfaces with oven cleaner.
If the self-cleaning surfaces no longer clean sufficiently, they
can be regenerated with the cleaning system. For more
information, please see the
Cleaning system
section.
Light discolouration of the coating does not affect automatic
self-cleaning.
Caution!
■
Never use abrasive cleaning agents. You will scratch or
destroy the highly porous coating.
■
Never treat the ceramic coating with oven cleaner. If oven
cleaner accidentally gets onto it, remove it immediately with a
sponge and plenty of water.
Cleaning the cooking compartment floor
Use a dish cloth and hot soapy water or a vinegar solution.
If there are heavy deposits of dirt, use a stainless steel scouring
pad or oven cleaner. Only use when the cooking compartment
is cold. Never treat the self-cleaning surfaces with a scouring
pad or oven cleaner.
Cleaning the hook-in racks
You can remove the hook-in racks for easier cleaning.
:
Risk of burning due to hot components in the cooking
compartment!
Wait until the cooking compartment has cooled down.
1.
Push the hook-in rack upwards at the front and unhook to the
side.
2.
Pull the hook-in rack forwards at the rear and unhook to the
side.
3.
Clean the hook-in rack with washing-up liquid and a sponge
or brush.
4.
Align the hook-in rack with the kink (a) facing upwards, so
that the shelf positions match.
5.
Insert the hook-in rack at the rear as far as it will go.
6.
Push the hook-in rack towards the rear.
7.
Insert the hook-in rack at the front as far as it will go.
8.
Push the hook-in rack downwards.
Detaching and attaching the oven door
For cleaning purposes and to remove the door panels, you can
detach the oven door.
The oven door hinges each have a locking lever. When the
locking levers are closed (figure A), the oven door is secured in
place. It cannot be detached. When the locking levers are open
in order to detach the oven door (Fig. B), the hinges are locked.
They cannot snap shut.
:
Risk of injury!
Whenever the hinges are not locked, they snap shut with great
force. Ensure that the locking levers are always fully closed or,
when detaching the oven door, fully open.
