How to Keep Your Oven in Shape

Before cleaning your oven, or performing maintenance, dis-
connect it from the power supply.
To extend the life of your oven, it must be cleaned
frequently, keeping in mind that:
•

Do not use steam equipment to clean the appliance.

•

the enamelled or stainless steel parts should be
washed with lukewarm water without using any abra-
sive powders or corrosive substances which could ruin
them; Stainless steel could get stained. If these stains
are difficult to remove, use special products available
on the market. After cleaning, it is advisable to rinse
thoroughly and dry.

•

the inside of the oven should preferably be cleaned
immediately after use, when it is still warm, with hot
water and soap; the soap should be rinsed away and
the interior dried thoroughly. Avoid using abrasive de-
tergents (for example cleaning powders, etc…) and
abrasive sponges for dishes or acids (such as
limescale-remover, etc…) as these could damage the
enamel. If the grease spots and dirt are particularly
tough to remove, use a special product for oven clean-
ing, following the instructions provided on the packet.

•

if you use your oven for an extended period of time,
condensation may form. Dry it using a soft cloth.

•

it is important to ensure that the seal around the oven door
opening is not damaged. Should it be damaged, please
contact your nearest After-sales Service Centre. We
recommend you avoid using the oven until it has been
repaired.

•

never line the oven bottom with aluminium foil, as the
consequent accumulation of heat could compromise
the cooking and even damage the enamel.

•

clean the glass door using non-abrasive products or
sponges and dry it with a soft cloth.

How to remove the oven door
For a more thorough clean, you can remove the oven
door. Proceed as follows:
•

open the door fully;

•

lift up and turn the small levers situated on the two
hinges;

•

grip the door on the two external sides, shut it slowly
but not completely;

•

pull the door towards you, pulling it out of its seat;

Reassemble the door by following the above procedures
backwards.

Replacing the oven lamp
•

Always unplug the appliance from the mains or switch
off the main switch before all operations.

•

With the aid of a narrow, flat item (such as a screwdriver
or a spoon handle, etc...), remove the glass cover.

•

Unscrew the lamp and replace it with another featuring
the same characteristics:

- voltage 230/240 V
- wattage 15 W
- type E 14

•

Replace the glass cover and ensure you reposition the
seal correctly.
