operation.
The cooking compartment door locks shortly after
operation starts. The H symbol for the locking
mechanism appears on the right-hand side of the status
bar next to the elapsing duration.
The cooking compartment door cannot be opened until
the H symbol goes out in the status bar.
Once the cleaning has finished
An audible signal sounds. The oven stops heating.
“Finished” appears in the status bar. Use the 0 button
to switch off the audible signal. “Appliance cooling
down” appears in the status bar.

Adjusting the cleaning setting

In the section "Time settings", you can find out how to
delay the end time. This allows you to use the oven at
any time throughout the day. ~ "Time-setting options"

Once the cleaning function has ended
Once the cooking compartment has cooled down, use
a damp cloth to wipe off the ash that has been left
behind in the cooking compartment, in the accessories,
on the shelves and around the appliance door.
Wipe the pull-out rails with a damp cloth. Then slide the
pull-out rails in and out several times. After cleaning,
some discolouration may remain on the pull-out rails.
This has no effect on performance.
Notes
■ During cleaning, the frame on the inside of the
appliance door may discolour. This is normal and
does not affect performance. The discolouration can
only be removed using a stainless-steel cleaning
agent.
■ Very bad soiling may cause white deposits to remain
on the enamel surfaces. This is residue from the
food and is harmless. It does not affect performance.
You can remove these residues using lemon juice if
required.
Descaling
The appliance must be descaled regularly in order for it
to continue operating correctly.
There are several steps in the descaling programme.
For hygiene reasons, the descaling programme must
be run through completely so that the appliance can be
ready for operation again.In total, the descaling
programme runs for approx. 70-90 minutes.
■ Descale (approx. 55-70 minutes), then empty and
refill the water tank
■ First rinsing cycle (approx. 6-9 minutes), then empty
and refill the water tank
■ Second rinsing cycle (approx. 6-9 minutes), then
empty and dry the water tank
If the descaling process is interrupted (for example, due
to a power failure or because the appliance has been
switched off), you are prompted to rinse the appliance
twice after it is switched back on. The appliance cannot
be used until the second rinsing cycle has come to an
end.
The frequency with which the appliance must be
descaled depends on the hardness of the water used.
When only five more steam-assisted operations are
possible, or fewer, the appliance reminds you to
descale it with a message on the display. The number
of remaining operations is displayed after the appliance
is switched on. You can therefore prepare for the
descaling in good time.
Start
Caution!
■ Damage to the appliance: Use only liquid descalers
that are recommended by us for the descaling
programme. The time the product needs to work
during descaling depends on the type of descaler
used. Other descalers may damage the appliance.
Descaler order no. 311 680
■ Descaling solution: Do not allow any descaling
solution or descaler to come into contact with the
control panel or other delicate surfaces. This will
damage the surfaces. If this does happen, remove
the descaling solution immediately with water.
If you have used a steam-assisted operation
immediately before descaling, you must first switch the
appliance off so that the residual water is pumped out
of the evaporator system.
1. Mix 400 ml water with 200 ml liquid descaler to
make a descaling solution.
2. Press the On/Off button.
3. Remove the water tank and fill with descaling
solution.
4. Fully insert the water tank filled with the descaling
solution.
5. Close the control panel.
6. Press the Menu button.
The operating modes menu opens.
7. Select the "Descaling" operating mode.
If you touch the "Next" field, information on the
cleaning operation is displayed.
The duration of the descaling programme is
displayed. It cannot be changed.
