Maintenance and cleaning
Warning
Before cleaning always allow the appliance to cool down
before switching off at the electricity supply.
Cleaning materials
•
Before using any cleaning materials on your appliance,
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 and
scourers should also be avoided.
External cleaning
•
Do not use abrasive cleaning materials e.g. abrasive
cream cleaners, wire wool pads or scourers on painted
or printed finishes as damage may occur. Regularly
wipe over the control panel, doors and appliance sides
using a soft cloth and hot soapy water. To prevent
streaking, finish with a soft cloth.
•
Stainless Steel cream cleaners are abrasive and should
be avoided as they may dull the surface finish. Any
spillage on the stainless steel finish must be
wiped off immediately.
Warning
Do not attempt to remove any of the control knobs
from the appliance as this may cause damage and is a
safety hazard.
Warning
Under no circumstances should the door assembly be
detached from the product for cleaning.
Cleaning the control knobs
and handles
It is strongly recommended that only hot soapy water be used
for cleaning the control knobs and handles. ANY OTHER
CLEANING MATERIALS MAY DULL THE SURFACE
FINISH.
Cleaning the shelves, wirework
runners and grill/oven
furniture.
All removable parts, except the grill pan handle, can be washed
in the dishwasher. The grill pan, grill pan grid, oven shelves and
wirework runners may be cleaned using a soap impregnated
steel wool pad. Soaking first in hot soapy water will make
cleaning easier.
Removing and replacing the
wirework runners
•
Remove all shelves and furniture from the oven/grill
cavities.
•
Hold the wirework at the bottom, unclip from the
cavity side and gently pull towards the centre of the
oven/grill cavity.
•
Unhook the runner at the top and remove from the
cavity.
•
To replace the runners, hook the wirework side
runner into the cavity, slide back and press into place.
Warning
•
Ensure the wirework runners are firmly in position
before replacing the oven shelves.
Cleaning inside the ovens
•
The Stayclean surface inside the ovens should not be
cleaned manually. See 'Care of Stayclean Surfaces'. 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.
Warning
Aerosol cleaners must not be used on Stayclean
surfaces and must not come into contact with the
elements, the door seal or any painted finishes as this
may cause damage.
Care of stayclean surfaces
•
To carry out the cleaning cycle, remove the oven
shelves and set the oven to 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 staining of the cavity.
•
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.
