Care and cleaning
If cleaned and properly cared for, your oven will keep its bright
appearance and operating performance for many years to
come. Advice on how to care for and clean your oven is
provided below.
Notes
Different colours may be seen in your front panel due to the
■
various materials used in its manufacture, such as glass,
plastic and metal.
Dark patches in the door's glass panel may seem to be dirt
■
but they are in fact reflections from the oven light.
Enamel burns at very high temperatures. This may cause
■
slight discolouration. This is normal and does not affect the
oven's operation. The edges of thin baking trays may not be
completely enamelled. They may therefore feel slightly rough,
although their corrosive protection will be unaffected.
Cleaning products
Follow the indications provided in the table to avoid damaging
the various oven surfaces by using unsuitable cleaning
products. Do not use
abrasive or acidic cleaning products
■
strong products containing alcohol
■
scourers or hard sponges
■
high-pressure or steam cleaners.
■
Wash new dishcloths thoroughly before use.
