Cleaning Inside the Ovens
The sides and back of the grill/top oven and main
oven compartments are coated with a special
Stayclean coating. They should not be cleaned
manually.
The vitreous enamel main oven base and grill
compartment base can be cleaned using normal oven
cleaners with care. Ensure that the manufacturers
instructions are followed and that all parts are well
rinsed afterwards.
Aerosol cleaners must not come into
contact with elements, the door seal, or
any painted finishes as this may cause
damage.
Hints and Tips
Aerosol cleaners must not be used on
Stayclean surfaces.
Stayclean surfaces destroy splashes of food and fats
when the oven temperature is raised to around 220°C.
It is a good idea to run the oven for an hour or two
per week to ensure continued good performance from
the Stayclean finish.
Slight discolouration and polishing of the Stayclean
surfaces may occur in time. This DOES NOT affect
the Stayclean properties in any way.
Use minimal, if any, extra oil or fat when roasting
meat, potatoes only require brushing with fat before
cooking. Extra fat in the oven during roasting will
increase splashing and soilage.
It is NOT necessary to add water to a meat tin when
roasting. The water and the fat juices from the joint
create excessive splattering during cooking – even at
normal temperatures, as well as causing condensation.
Covering joints during cooking will also prevent
splashing onto the interior surfaces. Removing the
covering for the last 20-30 minutes will allow extra
browning if required. Some large joints and turkeys
especially benefit by this method of cooking, allowing
the joint to cook through before the outside is over-
browned.
