How do I clean the oven?

Use the Hydro Clean function regularly. For tougher stains, use a non-abrasive cleaner and wipe with a damp cloth. Always let the oven cool down before cleaning.

It is a steam-based cleaning cycle that loosens food residue, making it easier to wipe clean.

What should I do if the oven isn't heating?

Check the power supply, circuit breaker, and consult the user manual. If the issue persists, contact customer service.

Can I use metal cookware in the oven?

Yes, but ensure the cookware is oven-safe and placed on the appropriate rack.

How do I set the timer?

Refer to the user manual for detailed instructions, but typically you select the desired cooking time using the touch controls.

Troubleshooting

Check the power supply and ensure the oven is properly connected. Verify the circuit breaker hasn't tripped. If the problem persists, consult a qualified technician.
