Once the cleaning function has ended
Once the cooking compartment has cooled down, use
a damp cloth to wipe off the ash that has been left
behind in the cooking compartment, on the shelves and
around the appliance door.
Wipe the pull-out rails with a damp cloth. Then slide the
pull-out rails in and out several times. After cleaning,
some discolouration may remain on the pull-out rails.
This has no effect on performance.
Notes
During cleaning, the frame on the inside of the
appliance door may discolour. This is normal and
does not affect performance. The discolouration can
only be removed using a stainless-steel cleaning
agent.
Very bad soiling may cause white deposits to remain
on the enamel surfaces. This is residue from the
food and is harmless. It does not affect performance.
You can remove these residues using lemon juice if
required.

Descaling

To ensure that your appliance continues to operate
correctly, it must be descaled regularly.
Descaling comprises a number of different steps. For
hygiene reasons, the descaling programme must be
run through completely before the appliance is ready
for operation again. In total, the descaling programme
runs for approx. 70–95 minutes.
Descale (approx. 55–70 minutes), then empty and
refill the water tank
First rinsing cycle (approx. 9–12 minutes), then
empty and refill the water tank
Second rinsing cycle (approx. 9–12 minutes), then
empty and dry the water tank
If descaling is interrupted (e.g. due to a power failure or
because the appliance is switched off), you will be
prompted to rinse the appliance twice when you switch
it back on. The appliance cannot be used until the
second rinsing cycle has finished.
The frequency with which the appliance must be
descaled depends on the hardness of the water used.
button
When only another five or fewer steam-assisted
operations are possible, the appliance reminds you to
descale it with a message on the display. The number
of remaining operations is displayed after the appliance
