14.1 Safety information
Attention
Please observe the following safety notices, before you commence with cleaning the
device:
► The device must be cleaned regularly and any food residues must be removed.
Insufficient cleanliness of the device can lead to the destruction of the surface, which for
its part can have a negative impact upon the service life of the device and can lead to a
dangerous condition of the device as well as fungal and bacterial contamination.
► Switch the oven off prior to cleaning it and unplug the plug from the wall power outlet.
► The cooking chamber is hot after it is used. There is a danger of burns! Wait until the
device has cooled down.
► Clean the cooking chamber after use as soon as it has cooled down. Extended waiting
unnecessarily complicates cleaning and can make it impossible in extreme cases.
Excessive accumulations of dirt can even damage the device under certain
circumstances.
► If dampness penetrates into the device, this can damage the electronic components.
Please ensure that no liquid can enter the interior of the device through the ventilation
slots.
► Do not use any aggressive or abrasive cleaning agents or solvents.
► Do not scrape off stubborn dirt with hard items.
14.2 Cleaning
Cooking chamber and inside of door
Danger of fire
► Always remove grease residues in the device, as these residues can otherwise
ignite.
Keep the cooking chamber of the oven clean. Wipe off any spattered or spilt food from
the walls of the cooking chamber with a damp cloth.
If the oven is excessively dirty, you can use a mild cleaning agent.
Wipe the door, window and the door gaskets with a damp cloth, to remove any spatters
and spilt food. Residues on the door gasket can mean that the door does not close
properly any more, which will cause the microwaves to escape.
Wipe off any steam, which has settled on the oven door, with a soft cloth. This may be
the case if the device is used in an extremely damp environment and is normal.
Smells can be removed from the oven by mixing a cup of water with the juice and the
skin of a lemon, pouring this into a deep microwave-proof bowl and allowing it to cook
in Microwave mode for five minutes. Then, dry off the oven thoroughly with a soft cloth.
After cleaning the interior space, leave the oven door open until the interior of the device
is completely dry.
