Care and cleaning 21

Cleaning the inside of your oven

Do not use abrasive cleaners, cloths or pads to clean the enamel.

Do not use any oven cleaners, abrasive cleaners, ammonia-based cleaners, products containing acids or alkalis, or detergents on the catalytic panels (not supplied with all models).

ELECTRONIC MODELS

Fig.17 Drop-down grill element (some models only)

To make cleaning easier, you can remove the side racks, the oven door, and the grease filter. Once you have removed the side racks, the top grill element also drops down to make cleaning easier (some models only). The grill element is self-cleaning.

Cleaning the enamel cavity

Clean the enamel on the inside of the oven when it has cooled down, using household detergents or an ammonia-based cleaner. You may use ‘off the shelf’ oven cleaners, if you carefully follow the manufacturers’ instructions.

Caring for the catalytic panels (some models only)

The catalytic panels are covered with a special microporous enamel which absorbs and does away with oil and fat splashes during normal cooking over 200 °C. If, after cooking very fatty foods, the panels remain dirty, heat the oven on maximum for an hour to an hour and a half, and they will self-clean. The side panels are reversible. Make sure that you replace them with the arrow up, and on the correct side. To remove the side catalytic panels you first need to unscrew the side racks. See Fig. 16.

When you replace the panels, make sure that:

The arrows are pointing upwards

The panel with the hole in it is on the left oven wall, so that there is a hole for the oven lamp. Do not put the catalytic panel without the hole over the oven lamp.

Then screw the side racks back onto the oven wall.

Note: the back panel of the oven is also a catalytic liner, but this is not reversible and should not be removed.
