Cleaning the Oven
Before cleaning always allow the cooling fan to
cool the oven down before switching off at the
electricity supply.
This appliance cannot be cleaned with steam or
with a steam cleaning machine.
The oven should be kept clean at all times. A
build-up of fats or other foodstuffs could result in
a fire, especially in the grill pan.
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. Harsh abrasives should
also be avoided.
External cleaning
Regularly wipe over the control panel, oven door and door
seal using a soft cloth well wrung out in warm water to
which a little mild washing-up liquid has been added.
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
Clean the outer and inner door glass using warm soapy
water. Should the inner door glass become heavily soiled
it is recommended that a cleaning product such as Hob
Brite is used. Do not use paint scrapers to remove
soilage.
DO NOT clean the oven door while the glass
panels are warm. If this precaution is not observed
the glass panel may shatter.
If the door glass panel becomes chipped or has
deep scratches, the glass will be weakened and
must be replaced to prevent the possibility of the
panel shattering. Contact your local Service Force
Centre who will be pleased to advise further.
Oven Cavity
The enamelled base of the 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.
DO NOT attempt to clean catalytic liners.
Oven Shelves and Shelf Supports

2
Clean the oven shelf support before
proceeding to the catalytic cleaning of the
oven.
To clean the oven shelves and the shelf supports, soak in
warm soapy water and remove stubborn marks with a well
wetted soap impregnated pad. Rinse well and dry with a
soft cloth.
Shelf Supports and Catalytic
Panels
The shelf supports and the catalytic panels can be removed
for easy cleaning.
Make sure that the appliance is completely cooled
before carrying out this operation.
Proceed as follows:
1) remove the front screw while keeping the shelf support
and the catalytic panel in position with the other hand
(see diagram 1);
2) keep the shelf support and the catalytic panel in
position and lift them with a hand while disengaging
the rear hook. Take off the shelf support and the catalytic
panel (see diagram 2);
3) once the cleaning is carried out, fit the shelf support
and the catalytic panel together and mount them
following the procedure in reverse.
Please, ensure the retaining nuts are secure when refitting
the shelf support and the catalytic panel.
