Cleaning sponge
The enclosed cleaning sponge is very absorbent. Use the
cleaning sponge only for cleaning the cooking compartment
and for removing residual water from the evaporator dish.
Wash the cleaning sponge thoroughly before using for the first
time. You can wash the cleaning sponge in the washing
machine (hot wash).
Microfibre cloth
The honeycomb microfibre cloth is particularly suitable for
cleaning sensitive surfaces such as glass, glass ceramic,
stainless steel or aluminium (product no. 460 770, also
available from our online eShop). It removes liquid and greasy
deposits in one go.
Roasting set
If possible use the roasting set when roasting (ordering
no. HEZ36DB, also available online in the eShop). This
considerably reduces the amount of spatter from the roast and
therefore the amount of soiling in the cooking compartment.
Cleaning aid
The cleaning aid loosens dirt in the cooking compartment using
steam. It can then be removed easily.
The cleaning process consists of:
■ Cleaning (approx. 30 minutes), then empty the evaporator
dish and wipe out the appliance
■ 1st rinse (20 seconds), then empty the evaporator dish
■ 2nd rinse (20 seconds), then remove the remaining water
All three steps must be completed in full. The appliance is
ready for operation again only after the 2nd rinse.
Preparation

accessories. Clean the evaporator dish with the enclosed
cleaning sponge.
Put a drop of washing-up liquid into the evaporator dish on the

Descaling
The appliance must be descaled at regular intervals in order for
it to continue operating correctly. "Descale the appliance"
reminds you of this.
You can only dispense with descaling completely if you
exclusively use softened water.
The descaling consists of:
■ Descale (approx. 30 minutes), then empty the evaporator
dish and refill the water tank
■ 1st rinse (20 seconds), then empty the evaporator dish
■ 2nd rinse (20 seconds), then remove the remaining water
All three steps must be completed in full. The appliance is
ready for operation again only after the 2nd rinse.
Descaler
Only use the liquid descaler recommended by the after-sales
service for descaling (product no. 311 138, also available
online from the eShop). Other descalers may damage the
appliance.
