HOW ‘CREDACLEAN’ WORKS
The surface of the ‘Credaclean’ oven liners are treated on the mottled face with a special vitreous
enamel which absorbs cooking soils. At temperatures of 220°C (425°F) or above, the special sur-
face enables these soils to be slowly destroyed. The higher the temperature the more effective it
is. In most cases normal cooking operation at this temperature will permit this cleaning opera-
tion to proceed during cooking. However if higher cooking temperatures are not used regularly
it may be necessary, to prevent heavy soiling, to run the oven without rod shelves or a meat pan
at maximum setting for a couple of hours. This may be necessary once a month or once every
two or three months, depending on the type and amount of oven cooking.
‘CREDACLEAN’ OVEN LINERS
It should not normally be necessary to clean the oven liners.
If the user feels it is desirable to do so remove the rod shelves and wash the side panels in warm
soapy water followed by rinsing in clear water.
GRILL/TOP OVEN
Remove the rod shelf, grill pan and the wire grid food support. It is best to wash these items
immediately after use to prevent stains from being burnt on when used again. Wipe out the
grill/oven compartment, use a fine steel wool soap pad to remove any stubborn stains left on
the floor of the compartment.
MAIN OVEN
Remove the rod shelves and wipe out the oven compartment, use a fine steel wool soap pad to
remove any stubborn stains left on the floor of the compartment.
CLEANING MATERIALS TO AVOID
1. Plastic or nylon pads
2. Household abrasive powders and scourers, these may scratch the surface.
3. Oven chemical cleaners, aerosols and oven pads.
4. Caustic cleaners, these will etch the surface and attack the metal frame.
5. Bath and sink cleaners may mark the surface.
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 corro-
sion.
