Self-cleaning surface in the cooking compartment
The back panel of the oven is coated with self-cleaning enamel.
It cleans itself while the oven is in operation. Sometimes, larger
splashes of food may not disappear until the oven has been
operated several times.

■
oven cleaner accidentally gets onto the rear wall, remove it
immediately with a sponge and plenty of water.
Never use abrasive cleaning agents. You will scratch or
■
destroy the highly porous coating.
