6.4 General Cleaning Tips

• Clean spills immediately to prevent them from baking onto surfaces.
• Use mild detergents and soft cloths. Avoid abrasive cleaners or scourers.
• Remove racks and trays before cleaning the oven interior.

7. Troubleshooting

If you encounter any issues with your oven, refer to the following common troubleshooting steps:

• Oven not heating: Check if the power supply is connected and the circuit breaker has not tripped. Ensure the correct cooking function and temperature are selected.
• Uneven cooking: Verify that the oven racks are positioned correctly and that food is not overcrowding the oven. The convection function helps with even heat distribution.
• Display not working: Try resetting the oven by turning off the power at the mains for a few minutes, then turning it back on.
