penetrate the small vents in the walls which may
cause damage to the oven.
3. Do not use spray type cleaners on the oven interior.
4. Heat up your oven regularly by using both heating
elements, refer to “Heating without food” on
page 12. Remaining food or fat splashed on the
oven interior can cause smoke or a bad smell.

These should be washed in a mild washing up liquid
solution and dried. High and Low racks are

of the door, the door seals and adjacent surfaces with
a soft, damp cloth.
NOTE: A steam cleaner should not be used.
