Cleaning the oven

Clean the oven regularly to prevent fat and leftover food from accumulating, especially on interior and exterior surfaces, the door and seal.

• Clean exterior surfaces with a soft cloth and soapy warm water. Wipe afterwards with a clean, damp cloth and dry the surfaces.
• Remove splashes and stains on the interior surfaces with a soapy cloth. Wipe afterwards with a clean, damp cloth and dry the surfaces.
• Clean the interior of the oven

Important

Take care that NO water enters the vents.
- NEVER use abrasive cleaning materials or chemical solvents.
- ALWAYS ensure that the door seal stays clean.

This prevents accumulation of dirt and allows you to close the door properly.

Removing and cleaning the guide rails.

Use conventional cleaning products to clean the guide rails.

• Grasp the guide rails at the bottom and tilt them towards the middle of the oven (A).
• Remove the guide rails from the holes in the back wall (B).

Removal and reinsertion of the oven door

1. Open the door completely to the horizontal position.
2. Slightly pull up the locking pins on both sides (A) and then tilt them all the way forward (B).
3. Now slowly close the door until you feel a slight resistance.
4. Then lift it upwards and pull it out.

To reinsert the door repeat the procedure backwards. If you have trouble closing or opening the door, check if the hinge grooves are properly inserted into their slots.

Always make sure the lock latches are correctly positioned in their slots. Never let the hinge locks spring out, as the central springs are very strong and may cause injuries.

Removal and reinsertion of oven door glass

Oven door glass may be cleaned from the inside, but you will have to remove the glass from the door. First remove the oven door (see chapter 'Removal and Reinsertion of Oven Door').

1. Slightly lift the brackets on the left and the right side of the door (mark 1 on the bracket) and pull them slightly away from the glass (mark 2 on the bracket).
2. Grab the door glass at the bottom edge and lift it slightly upwards to remove it from the support.
