.Cleaning function

The self-cleaning surfaces in the cooking compartment
n
C l e a n i n g f u n c t i o
are cleaned when the operating mode is set to
"Cleaning function".
The self-cleaning surfaces (back panel, ceiling panel
and side panels) are coated with a porous, matt
ceramic material. This coating absorbs and breaks
down splashes from baking, roasting and grilling while
the oven is in operation. If the surfaces no longer clean
themselves adequately and dark patches appear, the
surfaces can be cleaned by the cleaning function.
The appliance records the number of times it is
Note:
used.The appliance indicates when it has reached a
point in time after which cleaning is recommended. The
recommendation is displayed until the cleaning function
has finished.
If you do not act on this recommendation, the self-
cleaning surfaces may become damaged.
If your appliance is already prematurely very dirty or if
you notice dark patches on the back panel, do not wait
until your appliance recommends cleaning to do so.
This is because the more often the appliance is
cleaned, the longer the self-cleaning surfaces will retain
their cleaning capability. You can clean your appliance
at any time as required using the cleaning function.

Prior to initiating the cleaning function

the cooking compartment.
