Avoiding Damage to the Oven Interior The interior of your new steam oven is made out of high grade stainless steel. However, lack of care and maintenance might cause corrosion. Observe the following tips to avoid corrosion in the oven. No warranty claims can be lodged for any damage resulting from non compliance with these notes. · · · · · · · Clean the oven interior after it has cooled down. After cleaning, use the drying function to dry the oven interior. Aggressive cleaners may cause corrosion. Only use hot soapy water to clean the oven interior. Use the cleaning function. Do not use oven cleaner or caustic cleaners. Do not use cleaners containing chloride. Salt in the oven reacts aggressively. Salt residues on the oven interior may cause spots of corrosion. Always remove residues immediately. Spicy sauces (e.g. ketchup, mustard) and salted food (e.g. salted roasts) contain chloride and acids. These act aggressively on stainless steel. Always clean the oven interior after use. Only use original accessories in the oven interior. Rusting materials (e.g. serving plates, cutlery) may cause corrosion of the oven interior. Only use original small parts (e.g. knurled nuts). Order small parts from our after-sales service, should you loose any. 5 Features of your New Steam Oven Steam Oven This manual applies to different models.
