Oven interior
The oven interior is coated with dark
pyrolytic enamel which facilitates
cleaning.
This is a particularly hard enamel with
an extremely smooth surface and very
good anti-stick properties.
Manual cleaning of the oven interior
Allow the oven to cool down before
cleaning by hand.
Danger of burning!
The oven interior and the inside of
the door should be cleaned after
each use. If this is not done
subsequent soiling from baking and
roasting will become worse and
make cleaning harder. In extreme
cases, heavy soiling could even
damage the surface.
There is a fibre-glass door seal
around the oven cavity.
This seal is particularly sensitive and
should not be cleaned unless
absolutely necessary. Rubbing it
can damage it.
Most cooking residues can be removed
with a damp cloth and a mild solution of
hot water and washing-up liquid.
Never use hard brushes, hard
sponges, wire wool pads*, knives or
any other abrasive materials or
cleaning agents. They can damage
the enamel.
If using an oven spray, the
manufacturer's instructions must be
followed.
* Non-abrasive spiral pads can,
however, be used.
To make cleaning easier
– remove the oven door,
– dismantle the door,
– take out the runners,
– lower the top heating/grill element.
Instructions for doing so are given
further on in this section.
