Burnt-on food may be removed by carefully using a

Use hot soapy water and a cloth to clean and finish
with a soft dry cloth. Some light surface rust may
occasionally appear on the hot plate, this may be
removed by using a cleaning pad and polishing with a
small amount of cooking oil.
2.8 CLEANING THE OVEN
The internal surfaces of the oven are finished with
vitreous enamel. These may be cleaned using a non-
abrasive oven cleaner and any burnt-on food may be
removed by carefully using a plastic scraper or plastic
cleaning pad when the cooker is cool.
The door glass may be cleaned by using Stovax glass
cleaner and a soft cloth. Then wipe with warm soapy
water and a cloth, to neutralise any remaining cleaner
,
and finish with a soft dry cloth.
