Care and maintenance

Switching the appliance off

Disconnect your appliance from the electricity supply before carrying out any work on it.

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 - with the exception of the sliding racks - 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.

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

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.

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 external glass panel on the oven door may be removed:

1.loosen the two screws 8 (see figure);

2.remove the glass panel by unhooking it from the handle (see figure);

Replace the glass panel by following the above

sequence in reverse.
