after cleaning it.
Notes
¡ Enamel burns at very high temperatures, causing minor discol-
ouration. The functionality of your appliance is not affected by
this.
¡ The edges of thin trays cannot be completely enamelled and may
be rough. This does not impair corrosion protection.
¡ Food residues will leave a white coating on the enamel surfaces.
The coating does not pose a health risk. The functionality of your
appliance is not affected by this. You can remove residues with
lemon juice.

The back wall in the cooking compartment is self-clean-
ing. The self-cleaning surfaces are coated with a por-
ous, matt ceramic layer and have a rough surface.
When the appliance is in operation, the self-cleaning
surfaces absorb splashes from baking, roasting or
grilling and break them down. If the self-cleaning sur-
faces no longer clean themselves adequately during
operation, heat up the cooking compartment specific-
ally to the right temperature.
ATTENTION!
If you do not clean the self-cleaning surfaces regularly,
they may become damaged.

If dark stains are visible on the self-cleaning sur-
faces, heat up the cooking compartment.
▶
Do not use oven cleaner or abrasive cleaning aids.
If oven cleaner accidentally comes into contact with
the self-cleaning surfaces, dab it off immediately us-
ing water and a sponge cloth. Do not rub.
