Cleaning And Maintenance; Cleaning Agents - Bosch HBE5451UC Use And Care Manual

Cleaning and maintenance
With good care and cleaning, your oven will remain clean
and fully-functioning for a long time to come. Here we will
explain how to maintain and clean your oven correctly.
Notes
o Slight differences in the colors on the front of the oven
are caused by the use of different materials, such as
glass, plastic and metal.
o Shadows on the door panel that look like streaks, are
caused by reflections made by the oven light.
o Enamel is baked on at very high temperatures. This
can cause some slight color variation. This is normal
and does not affect operation. The edges of thin trays
cannot be completely enameled. As a result, these
edges can be rough. This will not impair the anti-
corrosion protection.

RISK OF ELECTRICAL SHOCK
Moisture entering the appliance can cause an
electrical shock. Don't use a high-pressure cleaner

WARNING

hot inside surfaces of the oven interior or heating
