12.4 Cleaning the oven

For best oven upkeep clean regularly after having allowed to cool. Take out all removable parts.

•Clean the oven racks with hot water and non-abrasive detergent. Rinse and dry.

•For easier cleaning, the door can be removed (see point “12.6 Removing the door”)

12.5 Cleaning the oven with self-cleaning panels (on some models only)

The oven is equipped with panels made of continuous self-cleaning enamel. These panels make the oven easier to clean and ensure that it remains efficient over time.

12.5.1 Use of self-cleaning panels

To keep the inside of the oven clean and free from food residues and unpleasant smells, it should periodically be operated empty at a temperature of at least 200° C for a time varying between 30 and 60 minutes. This allows the self-cleaning panels to oxidise any deposits present, which can then be wiped away with a damp sponge once the oven has cooled.

12.5.2 Maintenance of self-cleaning panels

The panels should not be cleaned using abrasive creams and ordinary cleaners. Simply wipe with a damp sponge to avoid damaging the special enamel coating of the panels.
