Care and Cleaning

The surface of the 'Stayclean' oven liners are treated on the mottled face with a
special vitreous enamel which absorbs cooking soils. At temperatures of 220˚C
(425˚F) or above, the special surface enables these soils to be slowly destroyed.
The higher the temperature the more effective it is. In most cases normal
cooking operation at this temperature will permit this cleaning operation to
proceed during cooking. However if higher cooking temperatures are not used
regularly it may be necessary, to prevent heavy soiling, to run the oven without
a meat pan at maximum setting for a couple of hours. This may be necessary
once a month or once every two or three months depending on the type and
amount of oven cooking.
It should not normally be necessary to clean the 'Stayclean' panels in water. If
desirable remove the rod shelves and wash them in warm soapy water, followed
by rinsing in clean water.
Open the oven door and remove the rod shelves. Using a suitable cloth to
protect the fingers grip the light glass dome, unscrew anti-clockwise and
lift. Reach into the aperture, and unscrew the lamp anti-clockwise. Fit
replacement lamp (15W 300˚C rated SES), refit dome.
Warning: Switch off the appliance at the wall mounted cooker control unit
before replacing the oven lamp.
