chapters.
Notes on cleaning
Clean the front of the oven with a soft
cloth with warm water and a mild cleaning
agent.
To clean metal surfaces, use a dedicated
cleaning agent.
Clean the oven interior after each use. Fat
accumulation or other food remains may
result in a fire.
Clean all accessories after each use and
let them dry. Use a soft cloth with warm
water and a cleaning agent. Do not clean
the accessories in the dishwasher.
Clean stubborn dirt with a special oven
cleaner.
If you have nonstick accessories, do not
clean them using aggressive agents,
sharp-edged objects or a dishwasher. It
can cause damage to the nonstick
coating.
Moisture can condense in the oven or on
the door glass panels. To decrease the
condensation, operate the oven for 10
minutes before cooking. Clean the
moisture from the cavity after each use.
Stainless steel or aluminium
ovens
Clean the oven door with a damp cloth or
sponge only. Dry it with a soft cloth.
Do not use steel wool, acids or abrasive
materials as they can damage the oven
surface. Clean the oven control panel with
the same precautions.
Cleaning the door gasket
Regularly do a check of the door gasket.
The door gasket is around the frame of
the oven cavity. Do not use the oven if the
door gasket is damaged. Contact an
Authorised Service Centre.
To clean the door gasket, refer to the
general information about cleaning.
