Care and cleaning

With attentive care and cleaning, your hob and oven will retain

its looks and remain in good working order for a long time. We

will explain here how you should care for and clean them

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 operation. 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.

Upper glass cover

Before opening the top cover, remove any spills with a cloth.

Use glass cleaner if possible.

For cleaning, remove the top cover. To do this, hold the cover

securely on both sides with both hands and pull it upwards.

If the cover hinges become loose, note the letters marked on

them. The hinge with the letter R must be fitted on the right, and

the hinge with the letter L must be fitted on the left.

After cleaning, re-assemble the top cover following the same

procedure in reverse order.

Only close the top cover once the burners have cooled down.

Cleaning agents

Damage to the various different surfaces caused by using the

wrong cleaning agent can be avoided by observing the

following instructions.

When cleaning the hob do not use

■ undiluted washing-up liquid or dishwasher detergent,

■ scouring pads,

■ abrasive cleaning agents such as oven cleaner or stain

remover,

■ high-pressure cleaners or steam jets.

■ Do not clean individual parts in the dishwasher.

When cleaning the oven do not use

■ sharp or abrasive cleaning agents,

■ cleaning agent with a high alcohol content,

■ scouring pads,

■ high-pressure cleaners or steam jets.

■ Do not clean individual parts in the dishwasher.

Wash new sponges thoroughly before first use.

Stainless steel

fronts

Wipe the appliance with plenty of water and some washing-up liquid. Always wipe parallel to the natural

grain. Otherwise, you could scratch the surface. Dry with a soft cloth. Remove flecks of limescale, grease,

starch and albumin (e.g. egg white) immediately. Do not use any abrasive materials, scouring sponges or

rough cleaning cloths. The stainless steel fronts can be polished using a special care product. Follow the

manufacturer's instructions. You can purchase special stainless steel cleaner from our after-sales service or

from specialist retailers.

Enamel surfaces and

lacquered surfaces

Wipe with some washing-up liquid and a damp cloth. Dry with a soft cloth.

Burners and steel

grid of the gas burn-

ers

Do not clean in the dishwasher. Remove the wire rack and clean with a sponge, washing-up liquid and

some hot water. Remove the burner cup and cover. Clean with a sponge and some hot water and washing-

up liquid. Ensure that the gas outlets on the burner cups are clean and unobstructed. Brush the igniters with

a small, soft brush. The gas burners only work if the igniters are clean. Remove food residue from the

burner shells with some washing-up liquid and a damp cloth. Only use a little water. Water must not be

allowed to enter the appliance. Ensure that the nozzle opening does not become blocked or damaged dur-

ing cleaning. Dry all parts after cleaning and place the burner cover accurately on the burner cup. If the

parts are not positioned accurately, it will be harder to ignite the burner. The burner covers are coated with

black enamel. Due to the high temperatures, discolouration may occur. This will not impair the function of

the burner. Replace the wire rack in the oven.

Electric hob (option) Clean with the hard side of a scouring sponge and some liquid scouring agent. After cleaning, switch the

hob on briefly to dry it. Wet hobs rust over time. Then apply a care product. Always remove spilt liquids and

food residue immediately.

Metal ring of the

electric hob (option)

The metal ring may discolour with time. However, it is possible restore the original colour. Clean the ring

with the hard side of a scouring sponge and some liquid scouring agent. Do not touch the adjacent sur-

faces. This could become damaged.

Knobs Wipe with some washing-up liquid and a damp cloth. Dry with a soft cloth.

Glass panel Can be cleaned with glass cleaner. Do not use any abrasive cleaning agents or sharp metal objects. These

could scratch and damage the surface of the glass panel.

Seal Wipe with a damp cloth. Dry with a soft cloth.

Oven floor, ceiling

and side panels

Clean with hot water or vinegar solution. For heavy soiling: Only use oven cleaner on cold surfaces. Never

apply to the back panel.
