11.5 Cleaning of the oven with self-cleaning panels

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.

11.5.1 Use of self-cleaning panels

Periodically, in order to keep the inside of the oven always free from food residues and unpleasant smells, it is advisable to operate the appliance when empty at temperatures no lower than 200° C for a period of between 30 and 60 minutes; doing this allows the self-cleaning panels to oxidise any residues which can then be removed using a wet sponge once the oven is cold.

11.5.2 Maintenance of self-cleaning panels

The use of abrasive creams and common detergents for cleaning the panels is not recommended. Use only a damp sponge in order not to damage the enamel covering on the panels.

11.5.3 Removing the self-cleaning panels

Remove all the accessories from the oven and carry out the following operations:

1Remove the side grids (fig.1);

2Slide out the side panels “F” and “G” (fig. 2);

3Extract the rear panel “A” after first unscrewing the threaded ring “C” (fig. 2);

4Reassemble the panels by returning them to their original conditions.
