Cleaning and care

￿Danger of burning. Make sure the oven heating elements are switched off and that the oven cavity is cool.

￿Danger of injury. Do not use a steam cleaning appliance to clean this appliance. The steam could reach electrical components and cause a short circuit.

All external surfaces are susceptible to discolouration or change in appearance if unsuitable cleaning agents are used.

Oven cleaners and descaling agents will damage the front of the oven, in particular.

Residues of cleaning agents must be removed immediately after use. All surfaces are also susceptible to scratches. Scratches on glass surfaces could even cause a breakage in certain circumstances.

Unsuitable cleaning agents

To avoid damaging the surfaces, do not use:

–cleaning agents containing soda, ammonia, acids or chlorides,

–cleaning agents containing descaling agents on the oven front,

–abrasive cleaning agents, e.g. powder cleaners and cream cleaners,

–solvent-based cleaning agents,

–stainless steel cleaning agents,

–dishwasher cleaner,

–glass cleaning agents,

–cleaning agents for ceramic hobs,

–hard, abrasive brushes or sponges, e. g. pot scourers, brushes or sponges which have been previously used with abrasive cleaning agents,

–melamine eraser blocks,

–sharp metal scrapers or tools,

–wire wool,

–spot cleaning,

–oven cleaner*,
