Cleaning the self-cleaning surfaces in the cooking 

compartment

The back wall in the cooking compartment is coated with a 

highly porous ceramic layer. This coating absorbs and 

disintegrates splashes from baking and roasting while the oven 

is in operation. The higher the temperature and the longer the 

oven is in operation, the better the result will be. 
If splashes are still visible even after repeated use, proceed as 

follows:

1.

Clean the floor, ceiling and side panels of the cooking 

compartment thoroughly.

2.

Set

:

 3D hot air.

3.

With the door closed, heat up the empty oven for 

approximately 2 hours at maximum temperature.

The ceramic coating is regenerated. When the cooking 

compartment has cooled down, remove the brown or white 

residue with water and a soft sponge.

Light discolouration of the coating does not affect automatic 

self-cleaning.

Caution!

Never use abrasive cleaning agents. You will scratch or 

destroy the highly porous coating.

Never treat the ceramic coating with oven cleaner. If oven 

cleaner accidentally gets onto it, remove it immediately with a 

sponge and plenty of water.

Cleaning the cooking compartment floor, ceiling and side 

walls

Use a dish cloth and hot soapy water or a vinegar solution.
If there are heavy deposits of dirt, use a stainless steel scouring 

pad or oven cleaner. Only use when the cooking compartment 

is cold. Never treat the self-cleaning surfaces with a scouring 

pad or oven cleaner.

Detaching and refitting the rails

The rails can be removed for cleaning. The oven must have 

cooled down.

Detaching the rails

1.

Lift up the front of the rail

2.

and unhook it (figure A).

3.

Then pull the whole rail forward

4.

and remove it (Fig. B).

Clean the rails with cleaning agent and a sponge. For stubborn 

deposits of dirt, use a brush.

Refitting the rails

1.

First insert the rail into the rear socket, press it to the back 

slightly (figure A),

2.

and then hook it into the front socket (figure B).

The rails fit both the left and right sides. The kinked section 

must always be at the bottom.

Detaching and attaching the oven door

For cleaning purposes and to remove the door panels, you can 

detach the oven door.
The oven door hinges each have a locking lever. When the 

locking levers are closed (figure A), the oven door is secured in 

place. It cannot be detached. When the locking levers are open 

in order to detach the oven door (Fig. B), the hinges are locked. 

They cannot snap shut.

ã=

Risk of injury!

Whenever the hinges are not locked, they snap shut with great 
force. Ensure that the locking levers are always fully closed or, 
when detaching the oven door, fully open.
