Maintenance and care
Switching the appliance off
Disconnect your appliance from the electricity supply
before carrying out any work on it.
Cleaning the appliance
• The stainless-steel or enamel-coated external parts as
well as the rubber seals may be cleaned using a
sponge that has been soaked in lukewarm water and
neutral soap. If these stains are difficult to remove,
use only specialised products. After cleaning, rinse
and dry thoroughly. Do not use abrasive powders or
corrosive substances.
• Ideally, the inside of the oven should be cleaned after
each use, when it is still lukewarm. Use hot water and
detergent, rinse and dry with a soft cloth. Do not use
abrasive products.
• All accessories - with the exception of the sliding
racks - can be washed like everyday crockery, and
are even dishwasher safe.
 Never use steam cleaners or pressure cleaners on
the appliance.
Cleaning the oven door
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.
To clean more thoroughly, you
can remove the oven door.
1. Open the oven door fully
(see diagram).
2. Use a screwdriver to lift up
and turn the small levers F
located on the two hinges (see
diagram).
3. Grip the door on the two
external sides and close it
approximately half way. Unlock
the door by pressing on the
clamps F, then pull the door
towards you lifting it out of its
seat (see diagram).*
3. Grip the door on the two
outer sides and close it
approximately half way. Pull
the door towards you lifting it
out of its seat (see diagram).*
To replace the door, reverse
this sequence.
Inspecting the seals
Check the door seals around the oven periodically. If
the seals are damaged, please contact your nearest
After-sales Service Centre (see Assistance). We
recommend not using the oven until the seals have
been replaced.
Replacing the light bulb
To replace the oven light bulb:
1. Remove the glass cover of
the lamp-holder.
2. Remove the light bulb and
replace it with a similar one:
Wattage 25 W, cap E 14.
3. Replace the glass cover (see
diagram).
Sliding Rack Kit assembly
To assemble the sliding racks:
1. Loosen the two screws A
(see diagram). If the oven is
fitted with self-cleaning panels,
these will have to be temporarily
disassembled.
2. Replace the screws A with the
screws and spacers (B + C) supplied
with the kit.
3. Tighten the new screws B and the
corresponding spacers C, fitting the
self-cleaning panels on again.
4. Secure the two joints D of the
guide rail in the holes provided
on the oven walls (see diagram).
The holes for the left guide rail
are situated at the top, while the
holes for the right one are at the
bottom.
5. Finally, fit the guide rail on the spacer C.
 Do not place the sliding racks in position 5.
