Self-cleaning

During self-cleaning, the oven heats up to approx. 500 . This
burns off residues from roasting, grilling or baking and you only
need to wipe the ashes from the cooking compartment.
You can choose from three cleaning levels.
Level
Degree of cleaning
1
gentle
2
medium
3
intensive
The heavier and older the dirt, the higher the cleaning level
should be. It is sufficient to clean the cooking compartment
every two to three months. If required, you can clean the oven
more frequently than this. A cleaning cycle requires only
approx. 2.5 - 4.7 kilowatt hours.

Important notes

For safety reasons, the oven door locks automatically. You
cannot open the oven door again until the cooking
compartment has cooled slightly and the padlock symbol for
the locking mechanism disappears. Do not attempt to push in
the latch by hand.
Never attempt to open the oven door during automatic
self­cleaning. The cleaning cycle may be cancelled.
The oven light in the cooking compartment does not come on
during self-cleaning.
ã=
Risk of fire!
The outside of the oven becomes very hot. Make sure that
nothing is placed against the front of the oven. Never hang
flammable objects, e.g. tea towels, on the door handle. Keep
children at a safe distance.

Before self-cleaning

The cooking compartment must be empty. Remove
accessories, ovenware and shelf rails from the cooking
compartment. Please see the Care and cleaning section for
how to unhook the rails.
Clean the oven door and the along the edges of the cooking
compartment in the area around the seal. Do not clean the seal.
ã=
Risk of fire!
Loose food residues, grease and meat juices may catch fire.
Wipe the cooking compartment and the accessories that are to
be cleaned at the same time with a damp cloth.
Cleaning accessories at the same time
The rails are not suitable for the self-cleaning programme. Take
them out of the cooking compartment. If you wish to clean
accessories at the same time, you can obtain accessory
holders from the after-sales service. You can use the holders to
clean enamelled accessories without a non-stick coating at the
same time, e.g. the universal pan. Always only clean one
accessory at a time.
Non-enamelled accessories, e.g. the wire rack, are not suitable
for the self-cleaning programme. Remove them from the
cooking compartment.
ã=
Risk of serious damage to health.!
Never clean non-stick baking trays and baking tins at the same
time using the self-cleaning programme. High temperatures
damage the non-stick coating and poisonous gases are
released.
