Care and Cleaning

Remove the grill pan and the wire grid food support, it is best to wash
these items immediately after use to prevent stains from being burnt on
when used again. Wipe out the Grill compartment, use a fine steel wool
soap pad to remove stubborn stains from the grill runners and the floor of
the compartment.
Wipe over the control panel with a damp cloth and polish with a dry cloth.
Do not use cream cleaners, oven cleaners or aerosols, scouring pads or
abrasive powder for cleaning the plastic knobs as damage will occur.
It is advisable to clean the decorative trims regularly to prevent any build
up of soiling. The recommended method of cleaning is to wipe over the
trims with a soft cloth wrung out in warm water or mild non-abrasive
cleaner. (If in doubt try the cleaner on a small area of trim which is not
noticeable in normal use). Then, after wiping with a cloth wrung out in
clear water, dry with a soft clean cloth.
Wipe over the outer door glass panels with a cloth wrung out in warm soapy
water, then after wiping with a cloth wrung out in clear water, dry with a soft
clean cloth. Ensure that glass doors are not subjected to any sharp
mechanical blows.
Glass Inner Door Panel (where fitted) – open the door fully and unscrew the
two screws securing the glass panel, taking care not to allow the glass to fall.
The glass panel may now be washed at the sink. Stubborn stains can be
removed by using a fine steel wool soap pad. Ensure the glass panel is not
subjected to any sharp mechanical blows. Take particular care not to damage
the inner surface which is coated with a heat reflective layer. After cleaning, rinse
and dry with a soft cloth. For slight soiling the inner glass panel may be cleaned,
while still warm, without removing it from the door.
Warning: Oven must not be operated with inner door glass removed.
Take care during cleaning not to damage or distort the door seals. Do not lift
the door seal from the oven chassis, if necessary remove the seal by carefully
unhooking the corner clips.
Take care that the rating label edges are not lifted during cleaning, and
furthermore that the lettering is not blurred or removed.
