20Care and cleaning

Manual cleaning

DOs

Before any manual cleaning or maintenance, first wait for the oven to cool down to a safe temperature to touch, then turn its power supply off at the wall.

Read these cleaning instructions and the ‘Safety and warnings’ section before you start cleaning your oven.

To prevent soiling from becoming ‘baked on’ and stubborn, we recommend removing any easy-to-reach spills, food or grease stains from the oven cavity enamel after each use. Doing so will reduce the need for using the Self Clean function frequently.

DON’Ts

Don’t use a steam cleaner.

Don’t keep flammable substances in the oven.

Don’t use oven cleaners or any abrasive or harsh cleaners, cloths, scouring pads or steel wool.

Don’t leave alkaline (salty spills) or acidic substances (such as lemon juice or vinegar) on the oven surfaces.

Don’t use cleaning products with a chlorine or acidic base.

Don’t clean the oven seal (see ‘Introduction’) or use any oven cleaning products on it.

What?

Glass surfaces (oven door panes, control panel)

How?

Door comprises a total of 4 glass panes

D	inner
C	middle
B	middle

Aouter

To clean glass panes B-D, you will first need to remove the door and the panes. For instructions, see section ‘Removing and replacing the door glass panes for cleaning’.

1 Clean with a solution of mild detergent and hot water, then wipe dry.

2 Wipe with a glass cleaner and dry with a soft, lint-free cloth.

Important!

Don’t use oven cleaners or any other harsh/abrasive cleaners, cloths, scouring pads, steel wool or sharp metal scrapers to clean the glass surfaces. These scratch the glass and may damage its special coating, which in turn could result in the glass cracking or shattering.

Even if you only clean the inner pane (D), remove the door and the pane first. Cleaning the glass with the pane in the door may result in cleaning liquid running down the gaps and drying onto internal components.

Take particular care when cleaning the control panel glass.

Dials	Clean with a solution of mild detergent
	and hot water, then wipe dry.

Do not use stainless steel or oven cleaner on the dials, as doing so may damage their coating.
