Cleaning and care
Preparation
Dissolve one descaling tablet in approx. 600 ml of cold tap water.
Place the universal tray on the top shelf level to collect the descaling solution after it has been used.
A plastic tube (with clip) is supplied with your oven so that you do not have to hold the container with the descaling agent underneath the water intake tube.
Attach the plastic tube to the end of the water intake tube. Place the other end in the bottom of the descaling solution container and secure it to the container with the clip.
Close the door.
Start the descaling process.
Select the "Descale" option.
Press the OK sensor to start the suction process.
The segment display shows how the descaling process is progressing. You can hear the pump during the descaling process.
The amount of solution specified can be more than the amount which is actually taken in which means that some of the solution will be left in the container at the end of descaling. Top the container up with approx. 300 ml of water to the container, as the system will need to draw in some more liquid during the activation phase.
Once the descaling solution has been drawn into the appliance
–"Activation phase" will appear in the display.
The activation phase takes approx. 60 minutes.
–the time left for the activation phase will be shown counting down in the display.
The system will take in more liquid at approximately five minute intervals. You will hear the noise of the pump for a moment or so.
The oven lighting and the cooling fan will remain on during descaling.
