Care and cleaning
What? How? Important!
Side catalytic
panels
If you roast or grill a lot of meat and
hardly ever bake, heating an empty
oven for 60-90 mins at 250
o
C on
Bake
from time to time will help
the panels to break down any greasy
soiling.
To remove large food particles:
gently wash the panels in warm
soapy water. Rinse in clean water and
allow to dry naturally.
If the panels become oversaturated,
they will appear shiny and their
ability to ‘self-clean’ will be reduced.
In this event, they can be reversed.
These panels are normally
‘self-cleaning’ because their
special enamel breaks down
greasy splatters when the
oven is used for ‘non-greasy’
baking, especially at high
temperatures.
Never use scourers, brushes,
abrasives or cleaners with
acid or alkali content on the
catalytic panels.
