PerfectClean
Before using for the first time remove
any stickers from PerfectClean
surfaces.
The enamelled surfaces of the oven
interior, baking tray, grill pan, anti-splash
tray (if fitted), rack and side supports
have been treated with a special type of
enamelling called
"PerfectClean" .
This surface has very good anti-stick
properties which is much easier to keep
clean than conventional oven enamel, if
cleaned regularly.
Food can be taken off it more easily
and soiling from baking and roasting is
easier to remove.
The following notes on cleaning and
care should ensure that the anti-stick
and easy clean properties of
PerfectClean last for many years.
PerfectClean surfaces can be treated
as you would treat glass. If you are
unsure whether a particular cleaning
product is suitable for PerfectClean
consider whether you could clean a
window pane with the product without
damaging it.
Food can be sliced or cut up on the
PerfectClean surface in the same way
as on a baking tray with conventional
enamel.
Allow the oven and any accessories
to cool down before cleaning.
Danger of burning!
Normal soiling
Clean as soon as possible after each
use with a dishcloth, soft sponge or a
soft nylon brush, and a solution of hot
water and a little washing-up liquid. The
longer soiling is left the harder it may
become to remove.
Stubborn soiling
Stubborn soiling e.g. from roasting may
need to be soaked first with a damp
sponge to loosen it and if necessary a
non-abrasive stainless steel spiral pad
or a scraper suitable for glass surfaces
can be used to remove it.
After cleaning rinse thoroughly with
clean water. The water must run off the
surface easily. Any residual cleaning
agents will hinder this effect.
Using oven sprays on very stubborn
soiling
Some oven cleaners contain strong
alkalines and / or abrasive
materials. Because the enamel is
designed to be easily cleaned the use
of these cleaners is not recommended.
However if you still cannot get the
surface clean, an oven cleaner can be
used for a couple of minutes only.
Do not attempt to use on a hot oven or
accessories. Allow the PerfectClean
surfaces to cool down to room
temperature before applying oven
sprays!
