SteamCleanse
About this function
In order to keep your appliance working properly it should
be regularly cleaned to prevent any build up of food
deposits or greases. This function can help to make the
cleaning process easier and more convenient for you.
How it works
By using heat, steam and a few drops of washing up liq-
uid food deposits are loosened and softened enough to
make their removal much easier – eliminating the need to
scrub the enamel. The symbol is a special heat setting
that is designed for this kind of cleaning.
How to use. .
Remove all oven furniture before use.
Pour 300ml approx. of water with a few drops of
washing up liquid added onto a large absorbent
sponge (recommended size: 360mm x 300mm x
6mm) which is placed on the base of the cavity. If
the oven cavity base is heavily soiled, you may want
to leave the solution to soak for a short while before
switching on the function.
Close the oven door, and touch the Oven On icon.
Select the SteamCleanse function by touching the
icon this will flash for approx. 3 minutes while the
oven heats up to temperature.
After 3 minutes the icon will remain illuminated (not
flashing) - signalling that the SteamCleanse is in
progress. The oven lights in the cavity will
not
be
illuminated.
The cleaning cycle is approximately 21 minutes long,
and an alarm will sound once it is completed.
Once cleaning is finished, make sure that the appli-
ance is switched off - touch the Oven Off icon.
Use the large absorbent sponge to remove any excess
water from the base of the cavity.
You can now clean the inside of the oven using a soft
plastic bristled brush, cloth, sponge or other non
abrasive implement and warm soapy water.
Particularly stubborn soiling can be removed with a
specialist scraper (i.e. ceramic glass scraper).
Rinse the cavity thoroughly using plenty of clean
water and a cloth. Then dry carefully throughout
using a soft dry cloth. Make sure than you clean and
dry all the inside, and the surround of the appliance –
particularly the door seals.
