Catalytic Enamel Surfaces - Miele H 5961 B Operating And Installation Instructions

Catalytic enamel surfaces

The back panel is coated with dark
grey catalytic enamel.
Soiling from oil and fat is burnt off this
surface when very high temperatures
are used in the oven. The higher the
temperature, the more effective the
process.
The catalytic coating becomes
ineffective through using
– abrasive cleaning agents,
– hard brushes or abrasive
sponges,
– oven sprays.
Remove the catalytic back panel
from the oven before cleaning the
PerfectClean oven surfaces with
oven spray.
Note that deposits of spices, syrups
and similar substances are not
removed from the catalytic coating by
this process. These should be removed
by hand whilst still fresh, using a mild
solution of hot water and washing-up
liquid applied with a soft sponge or
brush. Remove the panels from the
oven to do this.
Soiling caused by oil and grease
splashes are removed from catalytic
coated surfaces when the oven is
heated to a high temperature. To do
this:
^ Take all accessories out of the oven.
^ Wipe large deposits of soiling from
the oven interior and the inside of the
door before starting the cleaning
process to avoid them baking onto
PerfectClean surfaces and becoming
impossible to remove.
Cleaning and care
^ Select Fan plus U.
^ Set the highest temperature setting.
Run the oven for approx. 1 hour. The
length of time will depend on the level
of soiling.
The timer can also be used to set the
finish time. See "Entering the duration,
start time or finish".
If the catalytic coated panel is very
heavily soiled with oil and grease, a
film will develop on the oven surface
during the cleaning process which
can be wiped off with warm water
and a little washing-up liquid once
cool.
^ Finally, clean the PerfectClean
surfaces and the inside of the door.
Any remaining soiling will gradually
disappear with each subsequent use of
the oven at high temperatures.
Should the catalytic coating on the
back panel become ineffective
through improper use or heavy
soiling, a replacement can be
obtained from your Miele dealer or
the Miele Spare Parts Department.
