8.5 Cleaning the door glazing
The glass in the door should always be kept thoroughly clean. Use absorbent paper towel; remove stubborn dirt with a damp sponge and ordinary detergent.
Do not use abrasive or corrosive cleaners for cleaning the door glazing (e.g.: powder products, oven- cleaner sprays, stain removers and metal scouring pads).
Do not use rough or abrasive materials or sharp metal scrapers to clean the oven's glass doors since they may scratch the surface and cause the glass to shatter.

During the first automatic cleaning cycle unpleasant smells may occur due to the normal evaporation of oily manufacturing substances. This is a completely normal phenomenon which disappears after the first cleaning cycle.

During the automatic self cleaning cycle the fans make more noise because they are running at a higher speed. This is a completely normal function, intended to provide more effective heat dispersal. At the end of the self cleaning process, the fans continue to run automatically in order to prevent overheating of the sides of the cabinet and the front of the oven.
