Care & maintenance

Run the self-cleaning cycle

when the appliance requests self-cleaning / the cavity needs cleaning

Self-cleaning heats the oven cavity to a very high temperature and burns off residues. Keep the kitchen ventilated, and keep children and pets away.

  1. 1

    Prepare the oven

    Remove the water tank. Remove accessories and forms from the cavity. Remove coarse dirt. Clean the appliance door and the edge surfaces of the cavity at the door seal. Clean the inner door glass with warm soapy water and a cleaning cloth, then dry with a soft cloth.

  2. 2

    Start self-cleaning

    Open the menu, choose Self-cleaning, and start the cleaning with start/stop. If needed, select a different cleaning level before starting.

  3. 3

    After cleaning

    When the cavity has cooled, wipe away the remaining ash in the cavity, on the racks, and on the appliance door with a damp cloth. Wipe removable parts with a damp cloth, then slide them in and out several times.

Keep in mind

  • The oven cavity gets very hot during cleaning; do not open the appliance door and let it cool down.
  • The outside of the appliance gets very hot during cleaning; do not touch the appliance door and keep children away.
  • The kitchen must be well ventilated during cleaning; do not stay in the room for long periods; keep children and pets away.
  • Loose food residues, fat, and meat juices can ignite; remove coarse dirt before cleaning.
  • Do not clean accessories during cleaning.
  • Never clean coated trays and forms together with the self-cleaning function.
  • If the door seal is damaged, do not use the appliance with a damaged or missing seal.
  • Do not hang flammable objects such as drying cloths on the door handle; keep the front of the appliance clear.

Descale the oven

when the appliance displays that 5 or fewer steam uses remain

Descaling removes limescale from the evaporator. The appliance is only ready for use again after descaling is completely finished.

  1. 1

    Prepare descaling solution

    Mix 400 ml water and 200 ml liquid descaling agent into a descaling solution.

  2. 2

    Fill and start

    Remove the water tank, fill it with the descaling solution, fully insert it again, close the panel, open the function menu, choose Descaling, and start.

  3. 3

    Rinse twice

    After descaling, remove the water tank, rinse it thoroughly, fill it with water, and insert it again. Repeat for a second rinse cycle.

Keep in mind

  • Use only the recommended liquid descaling agent.
  • Do not let descaling solution or descaling agent get onto the control panel or other appliance surfaces; wipe it off immediately with water if it does.
  • If a steam function was used before descaling, switch the appliance off first so residual water can be pumped out.
  • The appliance remains blocked until the second rinse cycle is complete if descaling was interrupted.
  • Do not place the water tank in the dishwasher.
