Maintenance And Care; Cleaning The Appliance - Indesit HI 150.A IX/1HI 20.A/1 Bedienungsanleitung

Maintenance and care

• The base of your pot or pan should cover the hot plate.
If it is smaller, precious energy will be wasted and
pots that boil over leave encrusted remains that can
be difficult to remove.
• Cook your food in closed pots or pans with well-fitting
lids and use as little water as possible. Cooking with
the lid off will greatly increase energy consumption
• Use purely flat pots and pans
• If you are cooking something that takes a long time,
it's worth using a pressure cooker, which is twice as
fast and saves a third of the energy.
Switching the appliance off
Disconnect your appliance from the electricity supply
before carrying out any work on it.

Cleaning the appliance

• The stainless-steel or enamel-coated external
parts as well as the rubber seals may be cleaned
using a sponge that has been soaked in lukewarm
water and neutral soap. If these stains are difficult
to remove, use only specialised products. After
cleaning, rinse and dry thoroughly. Do not use
abrasive powders or corrosive substances.
• Ideally, the inside of the oven should be cleaned
after each use, when it is still lukewarm. Use hot
water and detergent, rinse and dry with a soft cloth.
Do not use abrasive products.
• The accessories can be washed like everyday
crockery (even in your dishwasher).
! Never use steam cleaners or pressure cleaners on
the appliance.
Cleaning the oven door
Clean the glass part of the oven door using a sponge
and a non-abrasive cleaning product, then dry
thoroughly with a soft cloth. Do not use rough abrasive
material or sharp metal scrapers as these could
scratch the surface and cause the glass to crack.
To clean more thoroughly, you can remove the oven door.
1. Open the oven door fully (see
diagram).
2. lift up and turn the small
levers situated on the two
F hinges; (see diagram).
3. Grip the door on the two
external sides and close it
approximately half way. Unlock
the door by pressing on the
F
clamps F, then pull the door
towards you lifting it out of its
seat (see diagram).
To replace the door, reverse this sequence.
Inspecting the seals
Check the door seals around the oven periodically. If
the seals are damaged, please contact your nearest
After-sales Service Centre (see Assistance). We
recommend not using the oven until the seals have
been replaced.
Replacing the light bulb
To replace the oven light bulb:
1. Remove the glass cover of the lamp-holder.
2. Remove the light bulb and replace it with a similar
one: Wattage 25 W, cap E 14.
