Risk of fire!
Loose food residues, grease and meat juices may catch fire.
Wipe the cooking compartment and the accessories that are to
be cleaned at the same time with a damp cloth.
Cleaning accessories at the same time
The rails are not suitable for the self-cleaning programme. Take
them out of the cooking compartment. If you wish to clean
accessories at the same time, use the accessory holders. You
can use the holder to clean enamelled accessories without a
non-stick coating at the same time, e.g. the universal pan.
Always only clean one accessory at a time.
Non-enamelled accessories, e.g. the wire rack, are not suitable
for the self-cleaning programme. Remove them from the
cooking compartment.
ã=
Risk of serious damage to health.!
Never clean non-stick baking trays and baking tins at the same
time using the self-cleaning programme. High temperatures
damage the non-stick coating and poisonous gases are
released.
Insert the left and right-hand accessory holders.

Care and cleaning

With good care and cleaning, your oven will remain clean and
fully-functioning for a long time to come. Here we will explain
how to maintain and clean your oven correctly.
Notes
Slight differences in the colours on the front of the oven are
■
caused by the use of different materials, such as glass,
plastic and metal.
Shadows on the door panel which look like streaks, are
■
caused by reflections made by the oven light.
Enamel is baked on at very high temperatures. This can
■
cause some slight colour variations. This is normal and does
not affect their function. The edges of thin trays cannot be
completely enamelled. As a result, these edges can be
rough. This will not impair the anti-corrosion protection.

Cleaning agents

To ensure that the different surfaces are not damaged by using
the wrong cleaning agent, observe the information in the table.
Do not use
sharp or abrasive cleaning agents,
■
cleaning agents with a high concentration of alcohol,
■
hard scouring pads or sponges,
■
high-pressure cleaners or steam cleaners.
■
Wash new sponge cloths thoroughly before use.
