Cleaning and maintenance

Before cleaning switch the oven off and let it
cool down.
The appliance must not be cleaned with a
superheated steam cleaner or a steam jet
cleaner.
Important: Before carrying out any cleaning
operation, the appliance must be disconnected from the
power supply.
To ensure a long life for your appliance, it is necessary
to perform the following cleaning operations regularly:
- Only perform when the oven has cooled down.
- Clean the enamelled parts with soapy water.
- Do not use abrasive cleaners.
- Dry the stainless steel parts and glass with a soft cloth.
- If there are stubborn stains, use commercially
available for stainless steel or warm vinegar.
The oven's enamel is extremely durable and highly
impermeable. The action of hot fruit acids (from lemons,
plums or similar) can however leave permanent, dull,
rough marks on the surface of the enamel. However such
marks in the brightly polished surface of the enamel does
not affect the operation of the oven. Clean the oven
thoroughly after every use. This is the easiest way to
clean dirt off. It prevents dirt being burnt on.
Cleaning materials
Before using any cleaning materials on your oven,
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 should
also be avoided.
External cleaning
Regularly wipe over the control panel, oven door and
door seal using a soft cloth well wrung out in warm water to
which a little liquid detergent has been added.
To prevent damaging or weakening the door glass
panels avoid the use of the following:
• Household detergent and bleaches
• Impregnated pads unsuitable for non-stick saucepans
• Brillo/Ajax pads or steel wool pads
• Chemical oven pads or aerosols
• Rust removers
• Bath/Sink stain removers
Clean the outer and inner door glass using warm
soapy water. Should the inner door glass become heavily
soiled it is recommended that a cleaning product such as
Hob Brite is used. Do not use paint scrapers to remove
soilage.

Grill heating element
This model has been fitted with a hinged grill element to
make the roof of the oven especially easy to clean.
Before proceeding ensure the oven is cool
and disconnected from the electricity sup-
ply.
1) Undo the screw fastening the grill element (see Fig.
4). When carrying out this operation for the first time,
we recommend using a screwdriver.
2) Then gently pull the grill downwards to allow access
to the oven roof (see Fig. 4).
3) Clean the oven roof with a suitable cleaner and wipe
dry before returning the hinged grill element to its
original position.
4) Carefully push the grill element up into its original
position and re-tighten the retaining nut.
Ensure the retaining nut on the grill element
is properly tightened so that it does not fall
down when in use.
