Cleaning and maintenance
General cleaning Before carrying out any maintenance or cleaning operation, make sure the appliance is cold and disconnected from the power supply. � If using spray products never direct the spray on the electric heating coils (clearly visible in the top part of the oven) or the thermostat bulb located at the top back. Fruit contains acids which, becoming hot during cooking, can form stains that are very hard to clean. This can make the enamel duller, but does not affect oven operation. To prevent these stains, always clean the oven after cooking fruit. This will avoid the possibility of any cooking residuals burning during subsequent cooking.
Cleaning the inside of the oven Clean the enamelled parts with lukewarm water, detergent and a soft sponge. DO NOT use scouring pads, steel wool or acids (e.g. descaling products), as they could damage the enamel. After cleaning, rinse thoroughly and dry with a soft cloth or shammy leather. In case of stubborn stains, do not use abrasive detergents (e.g. powders). Use normal detergents or a cloth moistened with hot vinegar, leaving it on the stain for a while.
