ers with an abrasive surface.
4.2.1 Removing dried deposits
Thick deposits must be soaked to soften them beforehand. This is best done with a wet cloth. It will then be
easier to remove the deposits. Over time, certain types of food such as tomatoes, vinegar and salt-baked
dishes may cause the enamel to change colour. This is normal and does not affect the functioning of the
oven. Do not try to remove these stains using aggressive methods such as those described, as this could
cause permanent damage to the surface.
Using a cleaning scraper
CAUTION! RISK OF CUTS!
The blade of the cleaning scraper is very sharp!
Always hold the cleaning scraper flat to the surface and push the grease away
from you.
Do not scrape with the corners of the cleaning scraper; handle it carefully to ensure that no sealing is dam-
aged.
