CARE & CLEANING
BEFORE CLEANING OR CARRYING OUT ANY MAINTENANCE ON THE OVEN, IT MUST BE
DISCONNECTED FROM THE POWER SUPPLY
Cleaning The Appliance
•
Slight differences in colour on the front of the oven are due to the different materials used, i.e.
glass, plastic or metal.
•
Any shady areas resembling grooves on the oven door glass are caused by reflections from the
oven light.
•
The enamel is branded at very high temperatures. This process may cause colour variations.
This is normal and will not affect appliance operation in any way. The thin edges of the sheet metal
cannot be entirely enamelled and may therefore appear to be unfinished. This will not affect the
rust protection.
•
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 and dry thoroughly. Do not use abrasive
powders or corrosive substances.
•
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.
•
All accessories - with the exception of the sliding racks - can be washed like everyday crockery,
and are even dishwasher safe.
•
We recommend that detergents are not sprayed directly onto the control panel, but that a sponge
is used instead.
•
Never use steam cleaners or pressure cleaners on the appliance.
Cleaning the Oven Door
The door of LED INSIDE models cannot be removed by the customer.
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.
Refer to Dismantling Instructions for details of LED door removal and dismantling.
Inspecting the Seals
Check the door seals around the oven regularly. We recommend that the oven is not used until the
seals have been replaced.
