Instructions for the user

7.2 Cleaning of the oven (without self-cleaning panels)

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

•Clean the oven rack and side runners with hot water and non- abrasive detergent. Rinse and dry.

•For easier cleaning, the door can be removed (see 7.4 Removing the door)

7.3Cleaning the oven with self-cleaning panels (on some models only)

The oven is equipped with panels made of continuous self-cleaning enamel.

These panels make the oven easier to clean and ensure that it remains efficient over time.

7.3.1 Use of self-cleaning panels

Periodically, in order to keep the inside of the oven always free from food residues and unpleasant smells, it is advisable to operate the appliance when empty at temperatures no lower than 200° C for a period of between 30 and 60 minutes; doing this allows the self-cleaning panels to oxidise any residues which can then be removed using a wet sponge once the oven is cold.

7.3.2 Maintenance of self-cleaning panels

The use of abrasive creams and common detergents for cleaning the panels is not recommended. Use only a damp sponge in order not to damage the enamel coating of the panels.
