Notes
■Slight differences in colour on the front of the
appliance are caused by the use of different
materials, such as glass, plastic and metal.
■Shadows on the door panels, which look like
streaks, are caused by reflections made by the
interior lighting.
■Enamel is baked on at very high temperatures.This
can cause some slight colour variation. This is
normal and does not affect operation.
The edges of thin trays cannot be completely
enamelled. As a result, these edges can be rough.
This does not impair the anti-corrosion protection.
Keeping the appliance clean
Always keep the appliance clean and remove dirt
immediately so that stubborn deposits of dirt do not
build up.
:Warning – Risk of fire!
Loose food remnants, fat and meat juices may catch
fire. Before using the appliance, remove the worst of the
food remnants from the cooking compartment, heating
elements and accessories.
Tips
■Clean the cooking compartment after each use. This
will ensure that dirt cannot be baked on.
■Always remove flecks of limescale, grease, starch
and albumin (e.g. egg white) immediately.
■Use the universal pan for baking very moist cakes.
■Use suitable ovenware for roasting, e.g. a roasting
dish.

Your appliance has the "Pyrolytic self cleaning" and
"Descaling" cleaning functions. You can use the
"Pyrolytic self cleaning" function to clean the cooking
compartment with no effort at all. You can use the
"Descaling" function to remove limescale from the
evaporator.
Pyrolytic self-cleaning
Use the "Pyrolytic self-cleaning" function to clean the
cooking compartment.
You can choose from three cleaning settings.
The dirtier the cooking compartment and the longer the
dirt has been there, the higher the cleaning setting
should be. It is sufficient to clean the cooking
compartment every two to three months. If required, you
can clean the oven more frequently. A cleaning cycle
requires only approx. 2.5 – 4.7 kilowatt hours.

automatically once a certain temperature is reached.
It cannot be reopened until the n symbol for the
locking mechanism on the display goes out.

The cleaning function heats up the cooking
compartment to a very high temperature so that food
remnants left over from roasting, grilling and baking will
burn off.This process releases vapours, which can
irritate the mucous membranes. While the cleaning
function is running, keep the kitchen well ventilated. Do
not remain in the room for long periods. Keep children
and pets away. Follow the instructions even when using
the Delayed start function with a delayed end time.
