Smeg GM93X8 Manual page 26

The oven should be operated at the maximum heat setting for 15/20 minutes after use of specific
products, to burn off the residues left inside the oven.
When the operation is complete, damp parts should be dried thoroughly.
9.5.1 Removing guide frames and self-cleaning panels (where present)
Removing the guide frames and the self-cleaning panels
enables the sides to cleaned more easily. This operation
should be carried out each time the automatic cleaning
cycle is used (on some models only).
To remove the guide frames:
1 Pull the frame towards the inside of the oven to unhook
it from its housing A, then slide it out of the seats at the
back B.
2 When cleaning
procedures to put the guide frames back in.
9.5.2 Cleaning the self-cleaning panels (on some models only)
If the self-cleaning panels are dirty, primarily with small amounts of grease, a regeneration cycle through
heating can be carried out.
Clean the base and the roof liner first with a microfibre cloth soaked in water and neutral washing up
liquid, then rinse thoroughly.
Set a regeneration cycle by selecting a fan-assisted function at the maximum temperature for one hour.
(See "6.7 Selecting a cooking function").
If the panels are particularly dirty, after the regeneration cycle, remove them and wash them with neutral
washing up liquid. Then rinse and dry them.
Put the panels back in the oven and set a fan-assited function at a temperature of 180°C for one hour, in
order to ensure that they are thoroughly dry.
We recommend carrying out the self-cleaning panel regeneration cycle every 15 days.
The panel regeneration cycle is a cleaning method suitable for grease residues, not sugar-based ones.
9.5.3 Cleaning the door glazing
The glass in the door should always be kept thoroughly clean. Use absorbent kitchen roll; remove
stubborn dirt with a damp sponge and an ordinary detergent.
Do not use abrasive or corrosive detergents to clean the oven's door glass panels (e.g. powder products,
spot-removers and wire sponges). Do not use rough or abrasive materials or sharp metal scrapers to
clean the oven's glass doors since they may scratch the surface.
9.5.4 Cleaning the door seal
To keep the seal clean, use a non-abrasive sponge and lukewarm water. The seal should be soft and
flexible (with the exception of pyrolitic models).
In pyrolitic models, the seal may flatten over time and lose its original shape. To restore it, pinch the seal
all the way along. This also helps remove any dirt on the seal.
