Care and Cleaning
23
Remove the rod shelves and meat pan.
Use a fine steel wool soap pad to remove stubborn stains from the rod
shelves, meat pan and the floor of the oven.
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 cook-
ing 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 a rinse in clean water.
The outside of the cooker should be cleaned regularly to keep it looking like
new. Wipe over with a soft cloth wrung out in warm water and dry with a soft
clean cloth.
You can use mild non-abrasive cleaners but always read the manufacturer’s
instructions first.
Always test their suitability on a small area of the cooker not noticable in normal
use.
