Care and cleaning

With attentive care and cleaning, your hob and oven will retain its looks and remain in good working order for a long time. We will explain here how you should care for and clean them correctly.

Notes

■ Slight differences in the colours on the front of the oven are

caused by the use of different materials, such as glass, plastic and metal.

■ Shadows on the door panel which look like streaks, are

caused by reflections made by the oven light.

■ Enamel is baked on at very high temperatures. This can

cause some slight colour variations. This is normal and does not affect operation. The edges of thin trays cannot be completely enamelled. As a result, these edges can be rough. This will not impair the anti-corrosion protection.

Upper glass cover

Before opening the top cover, remove any spills with a cloth.

Use glass cleaner if possible.

For cleaning, remove the top cover. To do this, hold the cover securely on both sides with both hands and pull it upwards.

If the cover hinges become loose, note the letters marked on them. The hinge with the letter R must be fitted on the right, and the hinge with the letter L must be fitted on the left.

After cleaning, re-assemble the top cover following the same procedure in reverse order.

Only close the top cover once the burners have cooled down.

Cleaning agents

Damage to the various different surfaces caused by using the wrong cleaning agent can be avoided by observing the following instructions.

When cleaning the hob do not use

■ undiluted washing-up liquid or dishwasher detergent,

■ scouring pads,

■ abrasive cleaning agents such as oven cleaner or stain

remover,

■ high-pressure cleaners or steam jets.

■ Do not clean individual parts in the dishwasher.

When cleaning the oven do not use

■ sharp or abrasive cleaning agents,

■ cleaning agent with a high alcohol content,

■ scouring pads,

■ high-pressure cleaners or steam jets.

■ Do not clean individual parts in the dishwasher.

Wash new sponges thoroughly before first use.

Stainless steel fronts

Wipe with some washing-up liquid and a damp cloth. Always wipe parallel to the natural grain. Otherwise, you may scratch the surface. Dry with a soft cloth. Remove flecks of limescale, grease, starch and albumin (e.g. egg white) immediately. Do not use any abrasive materials, scouring sponges or rough cleaning cloths. The stainless steel fronts can be polished using a special care product. Follow the manufacturer's instructions. You can purchase special stainless steel cleaner from our after-sales service or from specialist retailers.

Enamel surfaces and lacquered surfaces

Clean with some washing-up liquid and a damp cloth. Dry with a soft cloth.

The gas burners only work properly when the igniters are clean. Remove food residue from the burner shells with some washing-up liquid and a damp cloth. Only use a little water. Water must not be allowed to enter the appliance. Ensure that the nozzle opening does not become blocked or damaged during cleaning. Dry all parts after cleaning and place the burner cover accurately on the burner cup. If the parts are not positioned accurately, it will be harder to ignite the burner. The burner covers are coated with black enamel. Due to the high temperatures, discolouration may occur. This will not impair the function of the burner. Replace the wire rack in the oven.
