Important! Do not use any sharp or abrasive

cleaning materials! These could damage the

surface.

For metal fronts, use normal commer-

cially available cleaning agents.

Initial cleaning of the hob

1. Remove the pan support(s), burner caps,

burner crowns.

2. Sprinkle a few drops of a ceramic clean-

ing agent onto a piece of kitchen paper

and rub into the whole surface.

3. Polish the hob with a clean cloth until dry.

4. Insert the pan support(s), burner caps,

burner crowns.

Clean the burner

Wash the pan supports, burner caps and

burner crowns in hot water and washing-up

liquid.

Initial cleaning of the oven

Important! The oven roof and walls have a

catalytic self-cleaning surface (rough, porous

surface), from which small food deposits are

burnt off at the temperatures over 200 °C.

Please observe the following instructions to

ensure the best working of this self-cleaning

surface.

Caution! Do not use cleaning agents,

oven sprays or steel wool that may

scratch or scour the surface. Do not use

soap or other detergents. These destroy

the catalytic self-cleaning surface. If any

residues remain, wipe them off with a

damp, soft sponge.

It is best for the catalytic self-cleaning

surface that the oven is only opened for

short periods.

Caution! Do not use cloths made of

fabric. The lint catches and sticks on the

rough surface.

1. Switch on the oven lamp using the oven

function control knob.

2. Remove all accessories and side rails

from the oven interior.

Using the rings

Warning! Make quite sure the burner

crown and burner cap are positioned

correctly over the burner top.

For correct combustion the burner crowns

and burner caps must be positioned correct-

ly over the burner body. If the burner crown

and caps are off-centre, the gas flame will

burn incorrectly and the burner caps may be

ruined in a short space of time.

Control knobs on the gas hob

er are found on the control panel. The regu-

lation knobs could be turned in anti clockwise

direction until the small flame symbol.

quired.
