Non-enamelled accessories, e.g. the wire rack, are not suitable
for the self-cleaning programme. Remove them from the
cooking compartment.
: Risk of serious damage to health.!
Never clean non-stick baking trays and baking tins at the same
time using the self-cleaning programme. High temperatures
damage the non-stick coating and poisonous gases are
released.
Note: For details on which accessories are suitable for the self-
cleaning programme, please see the optional accessory table
at the start of these instructions.
Setting the cleaning level
1. Press the V button.
Cleaning level 3 is suggested. You can start the self-cleaning
immediately by pressing the
† button.
If you wish to change the cleaning level:
2. Select the desired cleaning level using the rotary selector.
3. Start the cleaning operation with
†.
The oven door locks shortly after operation starts. The
H
symbol lights up to indicate that the lock has been activated.
The oven door will not open again until the symbol goes out.
Once cleaning has finished
The oven stops heating. “Self-cleaning finished” appears in the
status bar.
Cancelling cleaning
Switch the oven off with the
‡ button. Do not open the oven
door until the
H symbol disappears.
Adjusting the cleaning level
Once cleaning starts, the cleaning level can no longer be
changed.
Setting cleaning to run overnight
So that you can use your oven throughout the day, delay the
end of the cleaning process to during the night. See the Time-
setting options section, setting a later end time.
After self-cleaning
Once the cooking compartment has cooled down, wipe out the
ash that has been left behind in the cooking compartment with
a damp cloth.
Care and cleaning
With good care and cleaning, your oven will remain clean and
fully-functioning for a long time to come. Here we will explain
how to maintain and clean your oven correctly.
Notes
■ Slight differences in the colours on the front of the oven are
caused by the use of different materials, such as glass,
plastic and metal.
■ Shadows on the door panel which look like streaks, are
caused by reflections made by the oven light.
■ Enamel is baked on at very high temperatures. This can
cause some slight colour variations. This is normal and does
not affect their function. The edges of thin trays cannot be
completely enamelled. As a result, these edges can be
rough. This will not impair the anti-corrosion protection.
Cleaning agents
To ensure that the different surfaces are not damaged by using
the wrong cleaning agent, observe the information in the table.
Do not use
■ sharp or abrasive cleaning agents,
■ cleaning agents with a high concentration of alcohol,
■ hard scouring pads or sponges,
■ high-pressure cleaners or steam cleaners.
Wash new sponge cloths thoroughly before use.
