4. Oven cleaning and maintenance
4.1 General notes on cleaning
DRIP PAN
It is advisable to clean the glass window with absorbent kitchen towel after every use of the oven. To
remove more obstinate stains, you can use a detergent-soaked sponge, well wrung out, and then rinse
with water.
GLASS PARTS
The lifecycleof the appliance can be extendedthroughregularcleaning. Waitforthe oven to coolbefore
carrying out manual cleaning operations. Never use abrasive detergents, steel wool or sharp objects for
cleaning, so as to not irreparably damage the enamelled parts. Use only water, soap or bleach-based
detergents (ammonia).
If dirty, the seal can be cleaned with a slightlydamp sponge.
OVENWINDOW SEAL
If greasy residues remain, immerse the pan in water and detergent. Alternatively, you can wash the pan
in the dishwasheror use a commercial oven detergent.Never put a dirty pan back into the oven.
Clean accessories with a wet, soapy sponge before rinsing and drying them: avoid using abrasive
detergents.
After using the grill, remove the pan from the oven. Pour the hot fat into a containerand wash the pan in
hot water, using a sponge and washing-upliquid.

4.2 Self-cleaning oven with catalytic
Special self-cleaning panels covered in a micro-porous coating are available as optional extras for all
models. If they are fitted, the ovenno longer needs to be cleaned by hand.
The fat that is splattered onto the sides of the oven during roasting is eliminated by the microporous
coatingwhich breaksthe fat down by catalysis and transforms it intogas.
Excessive splattering may nevertheless block the pores and therefore hinder self-cleaning. The self-
cleaning capacity may be restored by switching on the empty oven to maximum for about 10-20
minutes.
Do not use abrasive products, metal cleaning wads, sharp objects, rough cloths, or chemical products
and detergents thatmaypermanently damage the catalyticlining.
It is a good idea to use deep roasting trays to roast fatty foods such as joints of meat etc. and to put a tray
underneath the grill to catch surplus fat.If the walls of the oven are so thickly coated in grease that the
catalytic lining is no longer effective remove surplus grease with a soft cloth or sponge soaked in hot
water.
The lining mustbe porous for self-cleaning to be effective.
N.B.: All catalytic linings currently on the market have a working life of about 300 hours. They should
thereforebe replaced after about 300 hours.
3.3 Using the minute timer
To set the cooking time, turn dial one complete revolution and then position
the index to the requiredtime. When the time has lapsed, the signal will ring for
a few seconds.
