Setting the oven

There are various ways in which you can set your oven. Here 

we will explain how you can select the desired type of heating 

and temperature or grill setting.

Note: 

We recommend preheating the oven before inserting the 

food in order to avoid condensation on the oven glass.

Care and cleaning

With attentive care and cleaning, your hob and oven will retain 

its looks and remain in good working order for a long time. We 

will explain here how you should care for and clean them 

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 operation. 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

Damage to the various different surfaces caused by using the 

wrong cleaning agent can be avoided by observing the 

following instructions.

■

undiluted washing-up liquid or dishwasher detergent,

■

scouring pads,

abrasive cleaning agents such as oven cleaner or stain 

remover,
