8.5 Door cleaning
The internal glass of the cooking chamber door may be cleaned using the same type of degreaser
used for manually cleaning the cooking chamber; otherwise, a normal (non toxic) glass cleaning
product may be used. A common glass detergent may be used also to clean the external door
glass. In any case one may simply use warm soapy water. After rinsing dry the glass surface well
with a soft cloth. Should opaque spots form between the two glass panes, these may be removed
as they are inspectable.
8.6 Cleaning the external casing
The outer steel surfaces must be cleaned with a cloth soaked in warm soapy water or mixed with
a little vinegar, they must be rinsed well and dried with a soft cloth.
Should you wish to use specific products on the market, these must comply with the cleaning
requirements set out in the "General information" paragraph (paragraph 8.1).
It is worth remembering that the counter supporting the appliance or the floor surrounding the
area where the appliance is should also be cleaned without using acid corrosive substances (e.g.
muriatic acid) since the vapours released by them might corrode and deteriorate the outer steel
shell and cause irreparable damage to the electrical components inside the appliance.
8.7 Inactivity period
Should the appliance not be used for a long extent of time, it is good practice to disconnect it
from the power (act on the safety magnetic circuit breaker located upstream of the appliance) and
water supply. It is recommended to clean it with care internally (cooking chamber) and externally,
paying special attention to removing any salt residues which might lead to corrosion on the steel
surfaces. It is also recommended to protect the appliance with oil-based spray products (e.g.
Vaseline oil) which form an effective protective film when sprayed on the surfaces.
Leave the door of the cooking chamber ajar.
Adequately covering the appliance, finally, allows it to be protected from dust.

9. Maintenance

9.1 General information
A periodic check (at least once a year) of the appliance contributes to extending its life and assures
proper functionality. Any maintenance operation on the appliance must only be done by highly
qualified personnel trained in the operations to be performed.
Before performing any maintenance on the appliance, the power supply must be disconnected
(act on the safety magnetic circuit breaker located upstream of the appliance) and let it cool
down. The components that might require maintenance are all accessible by removing the left side
and back of the appliance.
9.2 Door gasket replacement
The door gasket has a rigid profile with retainer fins. This profile must be inserted in the suitable
guide on the front of the cooking chamber. To replace the gasket just remove the worn one from
the guide (pull hard at the 4 corners). Clean the guide from any dirt and insert the new gasket (it
is advisable to moisten the gasket profile with soapy water to make fitting easier).
9.3 Handle adjustment
Should the door handle not close properly, check and if required adjust the "nose" position as
follows:
1. With oven door open, loosen the fixing screws of the "nose"
2. Move the "nose" vertically and fasten it so that when the door is closed it may be inserted
in the handle, completely open (horizontal position) without rubbing.
3. After adjustment, with closed door the handle must be in vertical position (the end portion
of the "nose" must be perfectly horizontal).
Warning
The door handle must only be adjusted after positioning the oven in the correct way
