Switching the appliance off

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

Cleaning the appliance

• The stainless steel or enamel-coated external parts and the rubber seals
may be cleaned using a sponge that 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.
• All accessories - with the exception of the sliding racks - can be washed
like everyday crockery, and are even dishwasher safe.
! Never use steam cleaners or pressure cleaners on the appliance.

Cleaning the oven door

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.
For more thorough cleaning purposes, the oven door may be removed:
1. Open the oven door fully (see diagram).
2. Use a screwdriver to lift up and turn the small levers F located on the two
hinges (see diagram).

3. Grip the door on the two outer sides and
close it approximately half way. Pull the
door towards you, lifting it out of its slot (see
diagram). To replace the door, reverse this
sequence.
To remove oven door with soft closing hinges*:
1. Open the door completely.
2. Lift the pull-out hooks located on the two
hinges. If you cannot lift them manually, use
a tool as a lever.
3. Completely rotate downwards the pull-out
hooks.
4. Holding the door by its two outer sides,
slowly close it but not completely. Pull the
door to remove it from its seat (see figure).
To re-assemble the door follow the procedure
in reverse order.
5. Rotate the pull-out hooks upwards until they
touch the front of the oven.
6. Push the pull-out hooks downwards,
making sure they are steady and do not
rotate forward.
Inspecting the seals
Check the door seals around the oven regularly. If the seals are damaged,
please contact your nearest Service Centre (see Assistance). We recommend
that the oven is not used until the seals have been replaced.
