Switching the appliance off

Disconnect your appliance from the electricity

supply before carrying out any work on it.

Cleaning the appliance

 Never use steam cleaners or pressure cleaners on

the appliance.

• The stainless steel or enamel-coated external

parts and the rubber seals may be cleaned using

a sponge that has been soaked in lukewarm water

and neutral soap. Use specialised products for

the removal of stubborn stains. After cleaning,

rinse well and dry thoroughly. Do not use abrasive

powders or corrosive substances.

• The inside of the oven should ideally be cleaned

after each use, while it is still lukewarm. Use hot

water and detergent, then rinse well and dry with

a soft cloth. Do not use abrasive products.

• Clean the glass part of the oven door using a

sponge and a non-abrasive cleaning product,

then dry thoroughly with a soft cloth. Do not use

rough abrasive material or sharp metal scrapers

as these could scratch the surface and cause the

glass to crack.

• The accessories can be washed like everyday

crockery, and are even dishwasher safe.

• Dirt and grease should be removed from the control

panel using a non-abrasive sponge or a soft cloth.

• Stainless steel can be marked by hard water that

has been left on the surface for a long time, or by

aggressive detergents containing phosphorus. After

cleaning, rinse well and dry thoroughly. Any

remaining drops of water should also be dried.

Inspecting the oven seals

Check the door seals around the oven regularly. If

the seals are damaged, please contact your nearest

Authorised After-sales Service Centre. We

recommend that the oven is not used until the seals

have been replaced.

Replacing the oven light bulb

1. After disconnecting the oven from the electricity

mains, remove the glass lid covering the lamp socket

(IAABECKHA).

2. Remove the light bulb and

replace it with a similar one:

voltage 230 V, wattage 25 W,

cap E 14.

3. Replace the lid and

reconnect the oven to the

electricity supply.

Cleaning the glass ceramic hob

 Do not use abrasive or corrosive detergents (for example,

products in spray cans for cleaning barbecues and ovens),

stain removers, anti-rust products, powder detergents or

sponges with abrasive surfaces: these may scratch the

surface beyond repair.

• It is usually sufficient simply to wash the hob using

a damp sponge and dry it with absorbent kitchen

roll.

• If the hob is particularly dirty, rub it with a special

glass ceramic cleaning product, then rinse well and

dry thoroughly.

• To remove more stubborn dirt, use a suitable

scraper (this is not supplied with the appliance).

Remove spills as soon as possible, without waiting

for the appliance to cool, to avoid residues forming

crusty deposits. You can obtain excellent results by

using a rustproof steel wire sponge - specifically

designed for glass ceramic surfaces - soaked in

soapy water.

• If plastic or sugary substances have accidentally

been melted on the hob, remove them immediately

with the scraper, while the surface is still hot.

• Once it is clean, the hob may be treated with a

special protective maintenance product: the

invisible film left by this product protects the

surface from drips during cooking. This

maintenance should be carried out while the

appliance is warm (not hot) or cold.

• Always remember to rinse the appliance well with

clean water and dry it thoroughly: residues can

become encrusted during subsequent cooking

processes.
