Care and maintenance

Switching the appliance off

GB
Disconnect your appliance from the electricity supply
before carrying out any work on it.

Cleaning the oven

Never use steam cleaners or pressure cleaners on
the appliance.
• 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.
• The stainless steel or enamel-coated external
parts and the rubber seals may be cleaned using
a sponge which 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.
• The accessories can be washed like everyday
crockery, and are even dishwasher safe.
• Dirt and grease should be removed from the control
panel using a non-abrasive sponge or a soft cloth.
• Stainless steel can be marked by hard water that
has been left on the surface for a long time, or by
aggressive detergents that contain phosphorus.
We recommend that the steel surfaces are rinsed
well then dried thoroughly.
Inspecting the oven seals
Check the door seals around the oven regularly. If the
seals are damaged, please contact your nearest After-
sales Service Centre. We recommend that the oven is
not used until the seals have been replaced.
Replacing the oven light bulb
3. Replace the lid and reconnect the oven to the electricity
supply.
Do not use the oven lamp as/for ambient lighting.
Side and rear catalytic liners
These are panels coated with a special enamel, which
is able to absorb the fat released by food as it cooks.
This enamel is quite strong, so that the various
accessories (racks, dripping pans, etc.) can slide along
them without damaging them. White marks may appear
on the surfaces; these are not a cause for concern.
Nevertheless, the following should be avoided:
-scraping the enamel with sharp objects (a knife, for example);
-using detergents or abrasive materials.

1. After disconnecting the oven
from the electricity mains, remove
the glass lid covering the lamp
socket (see fi gure).
2. Remove the light bulb and
replace it with a similar one:
voltage 230 V, wattage 25 W,
cap E 14.
Cleaning the glass ceramic hob
Do not use abrasive or corrosive detergents (for
example, products in spray cans for cleaning barbecues
and ovens), stain removers, anti-rust products, powder
detergents or sponges with abrasive surfaces: these may
scratch the surface beyond repair.
• It is usually sufficient simply to wash the hob using a
damp sponge and dry it with absorbent kitchen roll.
• If the hob is particularly dirty, rub it with a special
glass ceramic cleaning product, then rinse well and
dry thoroughly.
• To remove more stubborn dirt, use a suitable scraper
(this is not supplied with the appliance). Remove
spills as soon as possible, without waiting for the
appliance to cool, to avoid residues forming crusty
deposits. You can obtain excellent results by using a
rustproof steel wire sponge - specifically designed for
glass ceramic surfaces - soaked in soapy water.
• If plastic or sugary substances have accidentally
been melted on the hob, remove them immediately
with the scraper, while the surface is still hot.
• Once it is clean, the hob may be treated with a special
protective maintenance product: the invisible film left
by this product protects the surface from drips during
cooking. This maintenance should be carried out
while the appliance is warm (not hot) or cold.
• Always remember to rinse the appliance well with
clean water and dry it thoroughly: residues can
become encrusted during subsequent cooking
processes.
