5.1 Cleaning
Be sure that all control switches are off and your appliance cooled before cleaning your oven. Plug
off the appliance. Check whether they are appropriate and recommended by the manufacturer
before using the cleaning materials on your oven. As they may damage the surfaces, do not use
caustic creams, abrasive cleaning powders, thick wire wool or hard tools. In case the liquids that
overflow around your oven burn, the enameled parts may be damaged. Immediately clean the
overflown liquids.
