CLEANING Cleaning the appliance Clean the appliance regularly to prevent fat and food particles from accumulating, especially on the surfaces of the interior and the exterior, the door and the seal. • Activate the child lock (to prevent that the appliance is switched on accidentally). • Clean the exterior surfaces with a soft cloth and warm soapy water. • Next wipe with a clean, damp cloth and dry the surfaces. • Remove splashes and stains on the interior surfaces with a cloth and soapy water.
CLEANING Cleaning the water tank filter If the water tank filter is dirty, you can clean it under the tap. 1. Remove the suction tube with the filter. 2. Clean it out under the tap and put it back into position. Ensure that the filter touches the base of the water tank Descaling During the steam process, there can be an accumulation of mineral deposit in the steam system. This needs to be removed from time to time. You need to carry out this task when the ‘Appliance needs descaling’ notification is shown.
CLEANING As well as an effective descaling action, it also has a cleansing and anti-bacterial effect, ensuring that the appliance’s internal components are preserved in an optimum hygienic state. Therefore food’s good taste is preserved and the appliance’s service life is extended. • Water is used for the steaming process. Water contains calcium and magnesium. Heat causes the water to condense, leaving a mineral deposit (not harmful to humans).
CLEANING Replacing the oven light bulb The lamp in this household appliance is only suitable for illumination of this appliance. The lamp is not suitable for household room illumination. The lamp is a consumer item and therefore not covered by warranty. Replace the defective lamp with a lamp of the same type. • Disconnect the appliance from the power supply by removing the plug from the socket or by switching off the circuit breaker in the fuse box.
CLEANING Removing the oven door • Keep your fingers away from the hinges of the oven door. The hinges are spring loaded and can cause injury if they spring back. • Make sure that the hinge latches are applied correctly to lock the hinges. Remove the oven door. 1. Open the door to the fully open position. 2. Lift both hinge latches (A) and pull them towards the oven door (B). The hinges will be locked in the 45° position. 3. Gently close the door until it reaches a 45° angle. 4.
CLEANING Removing the oven door glass The inside of the glass in the oven door can be cleaned. For this it must be removed from the oven door. 1. Slightly lift (1) and shift (2) the clamps at the lower left and right of the door to release the glass (A). 2. Grab the glass (A) at the bottom and gently lift (3) and shift (4) it to remove it from the upper support. 3.
