STEAM CLEAN ASSIST
Traditionally, oven enamels have been porous. This creates a surface that, over time, collects
microscopic oil and grime deposits that build up within these pores and become nearly impossible to
remove.
Thanks to some of the latest technology, we have revolutionary new enamel which is much less porous
than predecessors and creates a surface that has glass-like characteristics.
Added to this breakthrough technology, we have incorporated a new component into the enamel that is
non-stick. The two together creates a surface that is brilliantly effective and easy to clean.
To assist with easy cleaning,
AEG have developed a Steam Clean function. Not only is this
environmentally friendly, it is also less severe on the oven surfaces as no harsh chemicals are used. In
addition to this, the power consumption normally needed by a traditional Pyrolytic Oven have been
minimized to reduce unnecessary energy use. This new enamel is also acid resistant which ensures that
stains around the walls of the oven liner are minimized, and particularly if the new Steam Clean function
is used regularly.
If the following simple Steam Cleaning procedure is adopted regularly, your oven should remain in
original condition for many years.
To activate Steam Cleaning follow these simple steps:
After completion of cooking cycle, turn oven off and allow to cool. The oven must be cold
before
commencing steam cleaning.
1. When oven is cold, activate the steam clean function as follows,
2. Add approximately ½ a liter (1 Pint) of clean water to an oven safe dish and place on the
lowest rack. Add a small amount of dishwashing liquid to water to help remove stubborn
stains.
3. Close the oven door and select the Steam function on the Mode selector.
4. Select Steam on the Temperature Selector
5. Run the oven in this mode for approximately 45 minutes (set timer if preferred to remind)
6. After 45 minutes of steaming, turn both the Steam Mode selection and Steam Temperature
selection off . DO NOT OPEN OVEN DOOR FOR 30 min. allowing oven to cool to a safe
temperature for you to access it.
7. If not already done, remove the oven shelves and fittings. You can also wash these either in
your dishawasher or by hand.
8. With a warm damp cloth, simply wipe out grease from inside the oven. You should apply a
small amount of dish washing liquid to this cloth for further efficiency. It will be noted that
most grime has congregated on the base of the oven and is easily wiped away.
NOTE: If stubborn stains remain after Steam Clean apply Ceramic Cooktop
Cleaner/Polish.
