Before cleaning always allow the cooling fan to cool

the cooker down before switching off at the electricity

supply.

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 liquid detergent 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 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 Shelves

To clean the oven shelves, soak in warm soapy water and

remove stubborn marks with a well wetted soap impregnated

pad. Rinse well and dry with a soft cloth.The shelf supports

can be removed for easy cleaning (see diagram). Please,

ensure the retaining nuts are secure when refitting the shelf

support.

Cleaning the Oven

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.

If the soilage has become set, after the oven has cooled

down, the following process will help to soften the splatters

to help make cleaning easier.

1. Place the grill/ meat pan on the oven shelf positioned

in the lowest runner.

2. Add a few drops of washing-up liquid to the pan and

fill to about 12 mm. with boiling water from the kettle.

3. Close the oven door, turn the oven function knob on

conventional oven

( )

and set the thermostat knob

on 50°C.

4. After 15 minutes, turn off the thermostat and allow the

oven to continue without heat for a further 5 minutes,

when the temperature of the water will have cooled

down.

5. Carefully remove the pan of water from the oven and

use normal oven cleaners to clean away soil residues.

6. Leave a small amount of soapy water to soak into any

burned on spillage on the floor of the oven for a longer

time if necessary.
