Cleaning the appliance

The stainless-steel or enamel-coated external parts and the rubber seals may be cleaned using a sponge that has been soaked in lukewarm water and neutral soap. Use specialised products for the removal of stubborn stains. After cleaning, rinse and dry thoroughly. Do not use abrasive powders or corrosive substances.

The inside of the oven should ideally be cleaned after each use, while it is still lukewarm. Use hot water and detergent, then rinse well and dry with a soft cloth. Do not use abrasive products.

All accessories can be washed like everyday crockery, and are even dishwasher safe.

We recommend that detergents are not sprayed

directly onto the control panel, but that a sponge is used instead.

To replace the door, reverse this sequence.

Inspecting the seals

Check the door seals around the oven regularly. If the seals are damaged, please contact your nearest After- sales Service Centre (see Assistance). We recommend that the oven is not used until the seals have been replaced.

￿Never use steam cleaners or pressure cleaners on the appliance.

Cleaning the oven door

Clean the glass part of the oven door using a sponge and a non-abrasive cleaning product, then dry thoroughly with a soft cloth. Do not use rough abrasive material or sharp metal scrapers as these could scratch the surface and cause the glass to crack. For more thorough cleaning purposes, the oven door may be removed:

1. Open the oven door fully (see diagram).
