MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING
The oven should be kept clean at all
times. A build-up of fats or other
foodstuffs could result in a fire.
Before cleaning, ensure all control
knobs are in the OFF position, and the
appliance has cooled completely.
Before any maintenance or cleaning
can be carried out, you must
DISCONNECT the cooker from the
electricity supply.
Cleaning materials
Before using any cleaning materials on your
oven, check that they are suitable and that their
use is recommended by the manufacturer.
Cleaners that contain bleach should
NOT be used as they may dull the
surface finishes. A steam cleaner is not
to be used. Harsh abrasives should also
be avoided.
External cleaning
In the case of stainless steel parts, you may use
commercially available stainless steel cleaners
with care. These also provide a protective film
against finger marks.
To prevent damaging or weakening the
door glass panels avoid the use of the
following:
Household detergent and bleaches
Impregnated pads unsuitable for non
stick saucepans
Brillo/Ajax pads or steel wool pads
Chemical oven pads or aerosols
Rust removers
Bath/Sink stain removers
Oven Cavity
The enamelled oven cavity is best cleaned whilst
the oven is still warm.
Wipe the oven over with a soft cloth soaked in
warm soapy water after each use. From time to
time it will be necessary to do a more thorough
cleaning, using a proprietary oven cleaner.
Oven Shelves and shelf support
To clean the oven shelves, and shelf support soak
in warm soapy water and remove stubborn marks
with a well wetted soap impregnated pad. Rinse
well and dry with a soft cloth.
Grease Filter
When cooking meat, the grease filter must be
fitted over the oven fan by clipping it over the
vents in the back panel. This will prevent a built-
up of fat on the fan impeller. Do not use abrasive
materials to clean the seal. The grease filter is
dishwasher proof.
When cooking is completed and the oven has
cooled down, remove the filter by pushing the
protruding tongue on the filter upward.
Cleaning the Oven door
For a more complete cleaning of the oven door, it
is advisable to remove it in the following way:
- Open the door completely.
- Turn the two locking plates on the hinge arms
to 170°;
- Partially close the door, to a 30
o
angle;
- Lift the door and pull out.
