Cleaning the appliance
!
Never use steam cleaners or pressure cleaners on
the appliance.
• The stainless steel or enamel-coated external
parts and the rubber seals may be cleaned using
a sponge that has been soaked in lukewarm water
and neutral soap. Use specialised products for
the removal of stubborn stains. After cleaning,
rinse well and dry thoroughly. Do not use abrasive
powders or corrosive substances.
• The hob grids, burner caps, flame spreader rings
and burners may be removed to make cleaning
easier; wash them in hot water and non-abrasive
detergent, making sure all burnt-on residue is
removed before drying them thoroughly.
• Clean the terminal part of the flame failure safety
devices* frequently.
• The inside of the oven should ideally be cleaned
after each use, while it is still lukewarm. Use hot
water and detergent, then rinse well and dry with
a soft cloth. Do not use abrasive products.
• Clean the glass part of the oven door using a
sponge and a non-abrasive cleaning product,
then dry thoroughly with a soft cloth. Do not use
rough abrasive material or sharp metal scrapers
as these could scratch the surface and cause the
glass to crack.
• The accessories can be washed like everyday
crockery, and are even dishwasher safe.
• Do not use harsh abrasive cleaners or materials,
or metal scrapers to clean the oven door glass
since these can scratch the surface, which may
result in shattering of the glass.
• Never use steam cleaners or pressure cleaners
on the appliance.
Inspecting the oven seals
Check the door seals around the oven regularly. If
the seals are damaged, please contact your nearest
Authorised After-sales Service Centre. We
recommend that the oven is not used until the seals
have been replaced.
Replacing the oven light bulb
1. After disconnecting the oven
from the electricity mains,
remove the glass lid covering
the lamp socket (
see figure).
2. Remove the light bulb and
replace it with a similar one:
voltage 230 V, wattage 25 W,
cap E 14.
3. Replace the lid and reconnect the oven to the
electricity supply.
! Do not use the oven lamp as/ for ambient
lighting.
Cleaning The Cooktop
• Always wipe spills up when they occur. Do not
leave spills to dry onto the surface of the hob.
• It is usually enough to wash the hob with a damp
sponge and dry it with absorbent kitchen roll.
• NOTE: Do not put hot components in cold water.
The sudden temperature shock could cause the
component to crack.
• Do not use abrasive or corrosive detergents such
as stain removers, anti-rust products, powder
detergents or sponges with abrasive surfaces:
these may scratch the surface beyond repair.
Burners
• Wait for the cooktop to cool completely. Remove
the burner cap and check the gas outlet holes for
blockages. Clean with a soft bristle brush and
warm soapy water.
• The removable parts of the burners should be
washed frequently with warm water and soap and
any burnt-on substances removed.
• Dry the burner parts thoroughly before replacing.
Ignitors
• The terminal part of the electronic instant lighting
devices and flame failure probes should be
cleaned frequently,
Enamelled parts (trivets)
• Never use abrasives, scouring pads or sharp
objects. This will cause irreparable damage to the
enamel.
• Clean the enamelled parts with soapy water when
