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 or the door seal 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.
