FIRST USE OF THE OVEN - it is advised to follow these
instructions:
Furnish the interior of the oven as described in the chapter
–

heating elements.
Disconnect the appliance from the electrical power supply, let
–
the oven cool down and clean the interior of the oven with a
cloth soaked in water and neutral detergent; then dry carefully.
•
CAUTION: Do not use harsh abrasive cleaners or sharp metal
scrapers to clean the oven door glass since they can scratch the
