Steam Oven and Cabinet Fronts
Do not cover the ventilation openings of the steam
oven.

must be changed immediately.
After taking the food out of the oven, allow the oven
to cool down with the door closed. Do not leave the

Avoiding Damage to the Oven
Interior
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.
•
For regular care of the stainless steel interior
we recommend the Gaggenau oven care
product. Please observe the notes in the
cleaning chapter.
•
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.
Door Panel
Using aluminium foil in the oven compartment:
aluminium foil in the oven compartment should not
touch the glass panel of the oven door. This could
cause permanent marks on the glass panel.
