Oven Care; Cooker Care; Hob Care - Rangemaster Classic User's Manual & Installation Instructions

should clean the hob with caution as some
cleaners can produce noxious fumes if
applied to a hot surface.
DO NOT leave the hob unattended.
•
Care should be taken to not allow your
cookware to boil dry. It will damage your
cookware and Induction Glass Hob.
After use, switch off the hob element by its
•
control. DO NOT rely on the pan detector.

Oven care

When the oven is not in use and before
•
attempting to clean the appliance
ALWAYS be certain that the control knobs
are in the position.
OFF
Use oven gloves to protect your hand from
•
potential burns.
Cooking high moisture content foods can
•
create a 'steam burst' when the oven door
is opened (Fig. 1.5). When opening the
oven, stand well back and allow any steam
to disperse.
The inside door face is constructed with
•
toughened safety glass. Take care NOT
to scratch the surface when cleaning the
glass panel.
Accidental damage may cause the door
•
glass panel to fracture.
Keep oven vent ducts unobstructed.
•
DO NOT use harsh abrasive cleaners or
•
sharp metal scrapers to clean the oven
door glass since they can scratch the
surface, which may result in shattering of
the glass.
Make sure the shelves are pushed firmly
•
to the back of the oven. DO NOT close the
door against the oven shelves.
DO NOT use aluminium foil to cover
•
shelves, linings or the oven roof.
When the oven is on, DO NOT leave the
•
oven door open for longer than necessary,
otherwise the control knobs may become
very hot.
DO NOT use the timed oven if the
•
adjoining oven is already warm.
DO NOT place warm food in the oven to
•
be timed.
DO NOT use a timed oven that is already
•
warm.
Use dry oven gloves when applicable –
•
using damp gloves might result in steam
burns when you touch a hot surface.

Cooker care

As steam can condense to water droplets
•
on the cool outer trim of the oven, it may
be necessary during cooking to wipe away
any moisture with a soft cloth. This will also
help to prevent soiling and discolouration
of the oven exterior by cooking vapours
(Fig. 1.6).

Hob care

NEVER allow anyone to climb or stand on
•
the hob.
DO NOT use the hob surface as a cutting
•
board.
DO NOT leave utensils, foodstuffs or
•
combustible items on the hob when it
is not in use (e.g. tea towels, frying pans
containing oil).
DO NOT place plastic or aluminium foil, or
•
plastic containers on the hob.
ALWAYS turn the control to the
•
position before removing a pan.
Avoid heating an empty pan. Doing so may
•
damage both the hob and pan.
