CLEANING THE APPLIANCE
Always allow the appliance to cool down before cleaning to avoid
a burn injury.
Do not use caustic or abrasive agents, coarse wire wool or hard
tools as these can damage the surface finishes.
Normally, wiping with a soft cloth dampened with hot detergent is
sufficient, but for stubborn marks the following is recommended:
VITREOUS ENAMEL PARTS
Use only a cleaner that is recommended for this type of material –
void chloride-based products such as bleach.
a
DOOR GLASS
Do not use any abrasive medium that could cause damage.
Remember that if the surface of the glass panel becomes scratched,
this could lead to a dangerous failure.
To facilitate cleaning, the door glass can be lifted out after
removing the fixing screws.
When refitting, make sure that the glass is correctly seated in the
door recess and the correct way round.
Care must be taken when cleaning between the door glasses, and
inside the inner frame as some of the edges maybe sharp due to
the manufacturing process.

REMOVING THE OVEN DOOR
To facilitate cleaning inside the oven, the door can be removed
as follows:
Hinges “A” are provided with two movable bolts “B”.
When bolt “B” is raised, the hinge is released from its housing.
Having done this, the door must be lifted upwards and removed,
sliding it towards the outside; grip the sides of the door near the
hinges when performing these operations.
To refit the door, firstly slide the hinges into their slots and
open the door fully.
Remember to rotate the two movable bolts “B” used to hook
the two hinges before closing the door. (Fig.1).
