CARE AND MAINTENANCE
Important: Do not use water pressure cleaners or
steam cleaners.
When you finish cooking; wait for the oven to
cool and then clean it to prevent the build-up
of baked-on residues.
Exterior of the oven
• Clean with a damp cloth. If it is very dirty, add a
few drops of washing up detergent to the water.
Wipe with a dry cloth.
• Do not use corrosive or abrasive detergents,
which dull the surface.
In the event one of these products comes into
contact with the oven, immediately clean it using
a damp cloth.
• Slight differences in colour on the front of the
appliance are determined by the different
materials used, such as glass, plastic and metal.
Ovens with aluminium front panel
• Clean using a mild detergent and a soft window
cleaning cloth or a microfibre cloth that does not
leave fibres on the surface. Wipe horizontally,
without exerting pressure.
• Do not use corrosive products, hard sponges or
rough cloths. Clean the aluminium surfaces with
a dry cloth.
Accessories
• Soak the accessories in water with washing up
detergent immediately after use. Food residues
can be easily removed using a brush or sponge.
Oven cavity
• Do not use abrasive cleaners or pan scourers.
Use special oven cleaners and follow the
manufacturer's instructions.
• After every use, wait for the oven to cool then
clean it to prevent the build-up of baked-on food
residues.
• With long cooking times or when cooking on
several shelves, especially food with a high water
content (pizzas, stuffed vegetables, etc.)
condensation may form on the inside of the door
and the seal. When the oven is cool, dry the
inside of the door with a cloth or sponge.
• Clean the glass of the door with a suitable liquid
detergent.
• The oven door may be removed to facilitate
cleaning. To clean the upper part of the oven the
grill heating element can be lowered (only on
some models).
Self-cleaning catalytic side panels and rear
cavity (if provided) - Cleaning cycle
• Heat the oven to 200° C when empty and
maintain this temperature for about an hour.
• At the end of the cycle and when the oven has
cooled, use a damp sponge to remove any food
residues.
• Never clean the self-cleaning catalytic
panels and rear cavity with abrasive
products, rough brushes, pan scourers, or
oven cleaner sprays, as they will lose their
automatic cleaning properties.
