Cleaning and maintenance

If taken care of and cleaned conscientiously, your appliance will stay beautiful and intact for a long time. Here we explain how to take care of and clean your appliance correctly.

9WARNING

The appliance becomes very hot. Never touch the hot inside surfaces of the oven interior or heating elements. Always allow the appliance to cool down. Keep children away.

Moisture entering the appliance can cause an electrical shock. Don't use a high-pressure cleaner or steam cleaner.
