Always switch off and disconnect the power and gas supply before any cleaning or maintenance.

Never use aggressive or abrasive cleaning agents. Do not use solvents or petroleum-based cleaning agents. Some cleaning agents may leave a harmful residue or cause damage to the machine. Use a mild food-safe cleaning product instead.
