20 Self-cleaning
With the self-cleaning cleaning function, the cooking
compartment is cleaned virtually automatically.
Use the "Self-cleaning" to clean the cooking compart-
ment every two to three months. You can use the "Self-
cleaning" more often, if required. The "Self-cleaning" re-
quires approx. 2.5–4.7 kilowatt hours.

20.2 Setting the self-cleaning function
Ventilate the kitchen while the cleaning function is run-
ning.
WARNING ‒ Risk of harm to health!
The cleaning function heats up the cooking compart-
ment to a very high temperature so that food left over
from roasting, grilling and baking will burn off. This pro-
cess releases vapours, which can irritate mucous mem-
branes.
Keep the kitchen well ventilated while the cleaning
▶
function is running.
Do not remain in the room for long periods.
▶
Keep children and pets away.
▶
WARNING ‒ Risk of burns!
The cooking compartment gets very hot when the
cleaning function is in progress.
Never open the appliance door.
▶
Allow the appliance to cool down.
▶
Keep children at a safe distance.
▶
The outside of the appliance gets very hot when the
cleaning function is in progress.
Never touch the appliance door.
▶
