Care and cleaning
What? How?
Important!
Control knobs,
Oven handles,
Kickstrip grate
1
Wipe with a damp cloth using a solution of
mild detergent and hot water.
2
Dry thoroughly with microfiber cloth.
If wished, the knobs can be removed for
cleaning. Before removing a knob, make
sure that it is set to OFF, then pull it straight
towards you. Remove only one knob at a
time, and make sure that you refit it on its
shaft completely and correctly after cleaning.
Do not use stainless
steel cleaner on these
parts, as doing so may
damage their coating.
The knobs are not
interchangeable: if
you remove them for
cleaning, do so one at
a time. This is to ensure
that you replace each
knob exactly where you
removed it from.
Oven parts
Enamel
oven interior –
light soiling
1
Wipe with a damp cloth and a solution of hot
water and mild detergent.
2
Wipe dry with a soft cloth.
Note: the oven door may be removed to
make reaching into the oven easier.
To prevent soiling from
becoming ‘baked on’
and stubborn, we
recommend removing
any easy-to-reach spills,
food or greasy stains from
the enamel after each use.
In self- cleaning ovens, this
will also reduce the need for
using the
CLEAN
cycle
frequently.
Enamel
oven interior –
stubborn,
‘baked-on’
soiling
Self-cleaning ovens (those with CLEAN on
the oven mode knob): use the CLEAN cycle.
See ‘Using the CLEAN cycle’ for instructions.
Non-self-cleaning ovens (those without
CLEAN on the oven mode knob):
1
Remove everything from the oven: shelves,
side racks, all utensils.
2
Cover the kickstrip grate and the floor in
front of the oven with several layers of
newspaper. This is to protect these surfaces
from damage by oven cleaner seeping out or
accidentally dripping on them.
3
Apply an ammonia-based cleaner or oven
cleaner following the cleaner manufacturer’s
instructions.
4
After cleaning, replace the side racks and
shelves.
Don’t use oven cleaners
in self-cleaning ovens
(those with CLEAN on
the oven mode knob).
Oven cleaners are
caustic and may
permanently stain or
damage some surfaces.
When using an oven
cleaner in a non-self-
cleaning oven, take
care not to let it come
in contact with any
surface other than
the oven interior. If
it accidentally does,
remove immediately.
Side racks
Pre-soak any stubborn, burnt-on soiling, then
clean with a solution of mild detergent and
hot water and wipe dry with a microfiber
cloth.
Alternatively, clean these in the dishwasher.
Oven shelves
1
To remove stubborn or ‘baked-on’ soiling,
scrub with a dampened, soap-filled, non-
metal, non-abrasive pad, then wipe dry.
2
Apply a chrome cleaner with a damp sponge
or cloth following manufacturer instructions.
3
Wipe and dry.
Do not wash the main oven
shelves in the dishwasher,
immerse them in soapy
water, or use oven cleaner
on them. Doing so will
remove the lubricating
grease in the slides,
stopping them from running
smoothly.
