carrying out this operation.
The oven bulb has to comply to these features:

General Cleaning
Ensure the electricity supply is switched off before
carrying out this operation.
•
Before cleaning, always allow the oven to cool down.
•
When using spray cleaning products, be careful not to
spread them on the heating elements or on the thermostat
sensor.
•
Never use harsh abrasives, steel wool or cleaners with
bleach, as they could damage the enamel and the
oven door glass.
The Oven Cavity
The enamelled oven cavity is best cleaned whilst the oven
is still warm. It is advisable to wipe the oven over with a soft
cloth soaked in warm soapy water after each use. However,
from time to time, it will be necessary to do a more complete
cleaning, using a proper oven cleaner.
In case of particularly tough stains, you can use stainless
steel cleaning products or some warm vinegar.
•
If cooking fruits, some over-heated natual acids can
squeeze and settle on the oven enamel, causing stains
quite difficult to remove. This could affect the enamel
brightness, but it will have no consequence on the oven
performances. To avoid these stains to be burnt out during
the next cooking, carefully clean the oven cavity after all
fruits cookings.
The Oven Door and its gasket
Before cleaning the oven door, we recommend you to
remove it from the oven.
Proceed as follows:
a) open the oven door completely;
b) find the hinges linking the door to the oven (fig 7);
c) unlock and turn the small levers located on the two
hinges (fig. 7);
d) handle the door by its left- and right-hand sides,
then slowly turn it towards the oven until it is half-
closed;
e) gently pull the oven door off its site (fig. 7);
f) place it on a steady plan.
Clean the oven door glass with warm water and a softh
cloth only.
Once the cleaning is carried out, refit the oven door, following
the procedure in reverse.

The Oven Gasket
The correct operation of the oven is ensured by a gasket
placed round the edge of the oven cavity.
•
Periodically check the condition of this gasket. If
necessary, clean it without using abrasive cleaning
products.
•
If the gasket shows to be damaged, call you local
Service Centre. Do not use the oven until it has been
repaired.
