4.3.1 Cleaning
Use of a hose or pressure washer to clean the appliance is forbidden.
Before cleaning the oven, please remember that it remains hot for a long time after use.
Ovens are electrical appliances, which means that there are restrictions regarding cleaning
them with water. Use of water is permitted when cleaning the oven inside. Clean the out-
side of the oven with a damp cloth only to avoid water getting into the air inlets. Depend-
ing on how dirty the oven is, use an alkaline substance which can be diluted in a spray
bottle to loosen grease.
Daily cleaning
Spray diluted detergent solution into the inside of the cold (below +50ºC) oven, and on
the inside surface of the door. Heat the oven to about +50ºC (not essential), switch off at
the mains and let the detergent work for about 15 minutes. Use a brush or cleaning pad to
scrub the burned places. Avoid the use of steel wool and abrasive pads and use chemical
cleaners instead of mechanical ones. Once a surface is scratched, dirt sticks to it much
more easily.
Wipe the loosened dirt and detergent carefully with a damp cloth. After washing, dry the
oven by heating.
After cleaning the inside of the oven, wipe the outside surfaces, knobs and handrail.
Cleaning the guide rails
When cleaning the oven thoroughly, loosen, soak and wash the guide rails. The rails can
be easily removed and conveniently washed in a dishwasher.
To remove the guide rails:
• Lift the guide rails upwards.
• Pull the guide rails towards the centre of the inside of the oven.
• Lift the guide rails out of the oven.
• Replace the guide rails in the reverse order.
