14 Cleaning and Maintenance
This chapter provides you with important notices with regard to cleaning and maintaining the device. Please observe the notices to prevent damages due to cleaning the device incorrectly and to ensure trouble-free operation.
14.1 Safety information
▲VORSICHT Attention
Please observe the following safety notices, before you commence with cleaning the device:
The appliance must be cleaned regularly and any food residues must be removed. Insufficient cleanliness of the device can lead to the destruction of the surface, which for its part can have a negative impact upon the service life of the appliance and can lead to a dangerous condition of the appliance as well as fungal and bacterial contamination.
▶ Dry the appliance and the water tank thoroughly as soon as they have cooled down.
▶ Empty the water tank after each use.
▶ Switch the device off prior to cleaning it and unplug the plug from the wall power outlet.
The cooking chamber is hot after it is used. There is a danger of burns! Wait until the device has cooled down.
▶ Clean the cooking chamber after use as soon as it has cooled down. Extended waiting unnecessarily complicates cleaning and can make it impossible in extreme cases. Excessive accumulations of dirt can even damage the device under certain circumstances.
▶ If dampness penetrates into the device, this can damage the electronic components. Please ensure that no liquid can enter the interior of the device through the ventilation slots.
▶ Do not use any aggressive or abrasive cleaning agents or solvents.
▶ Do not scrape off stubborn dirt with hard items.
14.2 Cleaning
◆ Cooking chamber and inside of door
▲WARNUNG Danger of fire
▶ Always remove grease residues in the device, as these residues can otherwise ignite.
- Keep the cooking chamber of the device clean. Wipe off any spattered or spilt food from the walls of the cooking chamber with a damp cloth.
If the device is excessively dirty, you can use a mild cleaning agent.
- Wipe the door, window and the door gaskets with a damp cloth, to remove any spatters and spilt food. Residues on the door gasket can mean that the door does not close properly any more, which will cause the steam to escape.
- Wipe off any steam, which has settled on the device door & the cabinet, with a soft cloth.

- Use sterilisation mode regularly, we recommend setting of at least 30 minutes. So the device cleans itself.
- After cleaning the interior space, leave the device door open until the interior of the device is completely dry.
◆ Front of device and operating panel
- Clean the front of the device and the operating panel with a soft, slightly damp cloth.
- Please bear in mind that the operating panel does not get wet. Use a soft, damp cloth for cleaning.
HINWEIS Please note
Leave the device door open to prevent the device from being re-started accidentally.
◆ Exterior housing
- Clean the exterior surfaces of the device with a damp cloth.
Accessories
- Clean the accessory with water and detergent and then dry it thoroughly
◆ Water tank/decalcification
- Clean the water tank with water and a mild detergent.
- Regularly clean the water tank with a mixture of water and vinegar to remove any limescale. Operate the device with the mixture twice a month for 30 minutes at 100 °C in steam cooking mode. Then rinse the water tank thoroughly with water to remove any residue and use the sterilization mode.
◆ Ventilation openings
