Care and maintenance
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.
• The accessories 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. Lift up and turn the small
levers located on the two
hinges (see diagram).

3. Grip the door on the two
external 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.
Inspecting the seals
Check the door seals around the oven periodically. If
the seals are damaged, please contact your nearest
After-sales Service Centre (see Assistance). We
recommend that the oven is not used until the seals
have been replaced.
Replacing the light bulb
To replace the oven light bulb:
1. Remove the glass cover using a screwdriver.
2. Unscrew the light bulb and replace it with a
similar one: Wattage 15 W, cap E 14.
Replace the glass cover, making sure the seal is
positioned correctly (see diagram).
Warning:
The appliance is fitted with an automatic diagnostic
system which detects any malfunctions.
Malfunctions are displayed by messages of the
following type: ”F” followed by numbers.
Call for technical assistance should a malfunction
occur.
Never use the services of an unauthorised
technician.
