Cleaning and care

Oven interior

48
The oven interior is made from stainless steel which has been
treated with a special type of enamelling called
PerfectClean. The PerfectClean enamel has an iridescent
appearance.
However, it is very important to clean the surfaces each time
the appliance is used. The surface will become harder to
clean and the anti-stick properties will deteriorate if soiling is
not removed after each use and allowed to build up.
Soiling such as spilt juices and cake mixtures are best
removed whilst the oven or tray is still warm. Exercise caution,
make sure the oven is not hot - danger of burning.
Spilt fruit juices may cause lasting discolouration of the
surfaces. This discolouration is permanent but will not affect
the efficiency of the enamel.
Remove the soiling with clean water or use the "Maintenance
- Soak" function (see appropriate section). The water must run
off the surface easily. Any residual cleaning agents will hinder
this effect.
The following cause lasting damage to the surface
structure, reduce the anti-stick effect and must not be
used on PerfectClean surfaces:
– abrasive cleaning agents, e.g. powder cleaners and
cream cleaners,
- cleaning agents for ceramic hobs,
- ceramic and stainless steel hob cleaners
- wire wool or metal scourers,
- abrasive sponges, e.g. pot scourers or sponges which
have been previously used with abrasive cleaning agents,
- oven spray must not be used in a hot oven or left on for
too long,
- spot cleaning by rubbing the surface.
