15.2 Cleaning the appliance
In order to avoid damaging the appliance, you must
clean your appliance only as specified, and with suit-
able cleaning products.

The appliance and its parts that can be touched be-
come hot during use.
▶
Caution should be exercised here in order to avoid
touching heating elements.

Young children under 8 years of age must be kept
away from the appliance.

food residues and remnants from the cooking com-
partment, heating elements and accessories.

2.
Dry with a soft cloth.
15.3 Cleaning self-cleaning surfaces in the
cooking compartment
The back panel in the cooking compartment is self-
cleaning. The self-cleaning surfaces are coated with a
porous, matte ceramic layer and have a coarse sur-
face. When the appliance is in operation, the self-clean-
ing surfaces absorb splashes from baking, roasting or
grilling and break them down. If the self-cleaning sur-
faces no longer clean themselves adequately during
operation, heat up the cooking compartment specific-
ally to the right temperature.
ATTENTION!
If you do not clean the self-cleaning surfaces regularly,
they may become damaged.
▶
If dark stains are visible on the self-cleaning sur-
faces, heat up the cooking compartment.
▶
Do not use oven cleaner or abrasive cleaning aids.
If oven cleaner accidentally comes into contact with
the self-cleaning surfaces, dab it off immediately us-
ing water and a sponge cloth. Do not rub.
1.
Remove accessories and cookware from the cook-
ing compartment.
2.
Detach the shelf supports and remove them from
the cooking compartment.

3.
Remove coarse dirt using soapy water and a soft
cloth:
– From the smooth enamel surfaces
– From the inside of the appliance door
– From the glass cover on the oven light
This prevents stains that cannot be removed.
4.
Remove any objects from the cooking compartment.
The cooking compartment must be empty.
5.

The appliance starts heating after a few seconds.
7.
Switch off the appliance after one hour.
8.
Once the appliance has cooled down, wipe the
cooking compartment with a damp cloth.
Note:
Marks may appear on the self-cleaning sur-
faces. Residues of sugar and egg white in the food
are not removed and stick to the surfaces. Red
stains are residues from salty food – they are not
rust. The stains are not hazardous to health. These
marks do not impair the cleaning ability of the self-
cleaning surfaces.
9.
Attach the shelf supports.

16 Descaling
To ensure that your appliance continues to operate cor-
rectly, it must be descaled regularly.
The frequency with which the appliance must be de-
scaled depends on the hardness of the water used.
The symbol reminds you to run the descaling pro-
gramme.
There are four steps in the descaling programme. For
hygiene reasons, the descaling programme must be
run through completely so that the appliance can be
ready for operation again. Descaling takes around 90–
110 minutes in total:

ATTENTION!
The length of time for which the descaler is left to work
is based on the recommended, liquid descaler. Other
descalers may damage the appliance.
▶
Only use the liquid descaler recommended by us
for the descaling programme.
If descaling solution comes into contact with the control
panel or other delicate surfaces, it will damage them.
▶
Remove descaling solution immediately with water.
