Maintenance and care
GB
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 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 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.
• 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. For more thorough cleaning purposes, the oven
door may be removed:
1. Open the oven door fully (see diagram);
2. Lift up and turn the small levers located on the two hinges (see diagram);
To replace the door, reverse this sequence.
Inspecting the seals
Check the door seals around the oven regularly. If the seals are damaged,
please contact your nearest Service Centre (see Assistance). We recommend
that the oven is not used until the seals have been replaced.

Grip the door on the two external sides
and close it approximately half way.Pull
the door towards you lifting it out of its seat
(see diagram).
Replacing the light bulb
! Do not use the oven lamp as/for ambient lighting.
Side and rear catalytic liners*
These are panels coated with a special enamel, which is able to absorb the
fat released by food as it cooks.
This enamel is quite strong, so that the various accessories (racks, dripping
pans, etc.) can slide along them without damaging them. White marks may
appear on the surfaces; these are not a cause for concern.
Nevertheless, the following should be avoided:
- scraping the enamel with sharp objects (a knife, for example);
- using detergents or abrasive materials.
*
Only available on certain models.
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).
