How ‘Stayclean’
Works
Care and Cleaning
19
The surface of the ‘Stayclean’ 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 operation 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, to prevent heavy soiling, to run the
oven without 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.
Oven Liners – sides
It should not normally be necessary to clean the ‘Stayclean’ panels in
water. If desirable remove the rod shelves and the side panels and
wash them in warm soapy water, followed by rinsing in clean water.
