Instructions for the user

10.2.3 Ignition plugs and thermocouples

To work well, the ignition plugs and thermocouples must always be very clean. Check them frequently and clean them with a wet rag if necessary. Any dry residue should be removed with a toothpick or a needle.

10.3 Cleaning the inside of the oven

For best oven upkeep clean regularly after having allowed to cool. Take out all removable parts.

Clean the oven grill and side guides with hot water and non-abrasive detergent. Rinse and dry.

Clean the inside walls of the oven (after removing the self-cleaning liners, see point 7.2.4 Removing the self-cleaning liners) with a soft cloth moistened with an ammonium solution, rinse then dry. If there are still stains or drops, place a damp ammoniac-soaked cloth on the bottom of the oven, close the door and after a few hours wash the oven with hot water and liquid detergent. Rinse and dry.

10.3.1 Self-cleaning liners

The main oven is equipped with continuous self-cleaning enamelled liners.

These liners make the oven easier to clean and ensure its efficiency over time.

10.3.2 Using the self-cleaning liners

Periodically, to prevent food residues and unpleasant smells from accumulating inside the oven, the appliance should be operated empty at temperatures of not less than 200°C for a time varying from 30 to 60 minutes, in order to allow the self-cleaning liners to oxidise the residues present; when the oven has cooled, these will then be removed with a damp sponge

10.3.3 Looking after the self-cleaning liners

The liners should not be cleaned with abrasive creams or ordinary detergents. Use a damp sponge only, so as not to damage the special characteristics of the enamel which coats the liners.
