11. OVEN - CARE AND CLEANING
WARNING!
Refer to the Safety chapters.
• Clean the front of the appliance with a
soft cloth with warm water and clean-
ing agent.
• To clean metal surfaces, use a usual
cleaning agent
• Clean the oven interior after each use.
Then you can remove dirt more easily
and it does not burn on.
• Clean stubborn dirt with a special
oven cleaner.
• Clean all oven accessories after each
use and let them dry. Use a soft cloth
with warm water and a cleaning agent.
• If you have nonstick accessories, do
not clean them using aggressive
agents, sharp-edged objects or a dish-
washer. It can destroy the nonstick
coating.
Stainless steel or aluminium ap-
pliances
Clean the oven door with a wet
sponge only. Dry it with a soft
cloth.
Do not use steel wool, acids or
abrasive materials as they can
damage the oven surface. Clean
the oven control panel with the
same precautions.
11.1 Catalytic walls and ceiling
The walls and the ceiling with catalytic
coating are self-cleaning. They absorb
fat which collects on walls while the oven
operates.
To support this self-cleaning process,
heat the oven without any food
regularly:
• Turn the oven light on.
• Remove accessories from the oven.
• Select an oven function.
