Care and Cleaning
Regular cleaning is recommended to keep white cookers in its best possible
condition.
Turn OFF the main control unit and allow the cooker to cool before
cleaning.
Before switching on again, ensure that all controls are in the OFF position.
'CREDACLEAN' OVEN LINERS AND HOW THEY WORK
The surfaces of the 'Credaclean' oven liners are treated on the mottled face with a
special vitreous enamel which absorbs cooking soils. At temperatures of 220
o
C
(425
o
F) or above, the special surface enables these soils to be slowly destroyed.
The higher the temperature, the more effective it is. In most cases normal cooking
operations at this temperature will permit this cleaning operation to proceed during
cooking. However, if higher cooking temperatures are not used regularly, it may be
necessary, in order to prevent heavy soiling, to run the oven without a meat pan, at
a higher temperature setting of 230
o
C (450
o
F) for a couple of hours. This may be
necessary once a month or every two or three months depending on the type and
amount of oven cooking.
OVEN SIDES
It should not normally be necessary to clean the 'Credaclean' panels. If the user feels it
is desirable to do so, pull out the rod shelves, lift up and remove the side panels before
washing them in warm soapy water, and rinsing in clear water.
Do
not use
enzyme/biological washing powder, harsh abrasives or oven
chemical cleaners of any kind.
VITREOUS ENAMEL HOB SURROUND
Clean with a cloth wrung out in soapy water. Stubborn stains can be removed with
a cream, paste or liquid cleaner, or by gently rubbing with liberally soaped, very fine
steel wool pads. Check that the cleaning agent used is approved by the Vitreous
Enamel Development Council.
SEALED HOTPLATES
The cleaning of sealed hotplates should be done when they are cold, using a soap
filled scouring pad, following the grain of the hotplate. This will ensure that any
stubborn, burnt on spillages are removed. Wipe over with a damp clean cloth, making
sure that all the cleaner has been removed. Finally, turn on heater to warm for
a few minutes, then smear with a little cooking oil to provide a protective coating, or
a restorative agent such as Collo-Electrol
®
. This is available from Creda Spares
Department.
CONTROL PANEL AND SPLASHBACK
Wipe over the control panel and/or splashback with a damp cloth. Polish with a dry
cloth. Do not use oven cleaners or aerosols, scouring pads or abrasive powder for
cleaning the plastic knobs as damage will occur.

Note: We do not recommend the use of decorative covers over the hot hotplates as these
can hold condensation and cause corrosion. Accidental operation with a cover in place
can cause intense
heat. Never place saucepan lids on the hotplates, as this may cause
corrosion.
