- insert the tip of a screwdriver in opening B and pry inwards
towards the oven (1) to open the side panel by disengaging it from
the pins B1 at the back.
To remove the air intake wall completely follow these instructions:
- unscrew nut C1 with a hex wrench (2).
- lift (3) the air intake wall to disengage it (4) from the lower pin C
of the oven chamber;
- lower (5) the wall to disengage upper pin D and then withdraw the
wall completely (6).
To refit the air intake wall, repeat the steps in reverse order and
retighten nut C1.
• Each day wash the stainless steel surfaces with lukewarm
soapy water and then rinse and dry thoroughly.
• When cleaning stainless steel, never use abrasive tools such as
steel wool, wire brushes or scrapers, since they may leave
ferrous particles which will promote rusting on the steel surfaces.
• If the appliance is not to be used for long periods, proceed as
follows:
- Drain boiler
- Disconnect the electrical power supply and close the water and
gas valve;
- Using a cloth soaked in petroleum jelly, vigorously rub the
stainless steel surfaces to apply a light protective film;
- Periodically air the place of storage.

7.1 PERIODICAL MAINTENANCE OF THE BOILER

• The build-up of lime-scale inside the boiler is signalled by
illumination of the LED shown below.
When this LED illuminates the boiler must be descaled.
The manufacturer declines all liability for failure to clean the
boiler when necessary. Moreover, the repair or replacement
of scale-damaged parts is not covered by the guarantee if the
characteristics of the water supply do not comply with those
stipulated (see corresponding paragraph).
The boiler may be descaled using either:
- pure vinegar (100%);
or
- a chemical descaler (as instructed below).
The oven must be switched on prior to descaling the boiler.
7.1.2 VINEGAR CLEANING METHOD
1) Close the water supply valve.
2) Empty the boiler by pressing the drain button
3) Close the boiler drain after one minute by pressing the above
button.
2 4) Remove the plastic cap from the boiler filler pipe and pour in 8
litres (6-10gn) or 16 litres (20gn) approx. of pure vinegar.
5) Open the water cock.
6) Run a "steam" cycle for 20 minutes.
7) Switch off the oven and wait 60 minutes.
8) Restart the oven in steam mode for a further 10 minutes.
9) Switch off the oven again and wait 60 minutes.
10) With the water cock open, re-open the drain outlet and drain
off the vinegar (press the above button).
11) Switch off the oven.
12) Insert a rubber hose inside the boiler filler pipe and rinse
thoroughly until the water flowing out of the drain is clear.
13) Refit the filler plug and close the boiler drain (press the above
button).
7.1.3 DESCALER CLEANING METHOD
If you decide to descale the boiler using a chemical product, follow
the directions provided by the product supplier.
For example, when using ECOLAB's "STRIP-A-WAY" descaler,
proceed as follows:
• Follow the instructions given in the previous paragraph and
supply the following product quantities via the boiler filler pipe:
- 2 litres of descaler liquid plus 6 litres of water (6-10gn).
- 4.5 litres of descaler liquid plus 11.5 litres of water (20gn).
• Run a "steam" cycle for 12 minutes.
• Switch off the oven and wait 40 minutes.
• Reopen the boiler drain outlet and proceed as described in the
paragraph above.

IMPORTANT

Insert a rubber hose inside the boiler filler pipe and rinse
thoroughly with water to remove all traces of descaling
agent.
• Refit the filler plug and close the boiler drain (by pressing the
relative button).
After descaling the boiler, it is good practice to execute a 30-
minute STEAM cycle with the oven empty.
