Keeping the appliance clean
To avoid getting the cooking compartment dirty,
■
clean the cooking compartment after each use, as dirt will
bake on the next time it is heated up, and this can only be
removed with difficulty
■
always remove flecks of limescale, grease, starch and
albumin (e.g. egg white) immediately
■
use
3
CircoTherm® whenever possible. This operating
mode creates less dirt
■
Use the universal pan to bake very moist cakes
■
use suitable ovenware when roasting (e.g. roasting dish) or a
roasting sheet (see section: Accessories)
Self-cleaning surfaces
The rear wall, ceiling and side walls of the cooking
compartment are coated with self-cleaning enamel. This
coating absorbs and disintegrates splashes from baking and
roasting while the oven is in operation.
Large splashes only disappear after the oven has been used
several times.
Discolouration on the self-cleaning surfaces does not affect the
self-cleaning function.
Caution!
Damage to surfaces on self-cleaning areas due to applying
oven cleaner.Never clean the self-cleaning surfaces with oven
cleaner.
If oven cleaner accidentally gets onto self-cleaning surfaces,
remove it immediately with a sponge and plenty of water.
Caution!
Damage to surfaces on self-cleaning areas due to the use of
abrasive and acidic cleaning agents and aids.
Do not use cleaning agents containing abrasive substances or
acids.
Do not use abrasive cleaning aids such as steel wool or
scourers.
Oven cleaning
If the self-cleaning surfaces (see section: Self-cleaning
surfaces) in the oven no longer clean themselves adequately,
they can be regenerated using the
