f
Turn OFF at the mains before cleaning.
• Before switching on again ensure that all controls
:• are in the OFF position.
• Make sure that the oven, grill and
hotplates are sufficiently cool before
you start cleaning.
• As the hotplates are of a solid type, a residual
heat will remain after you switch off the cooker
so take care not to touch hot surfaces.
Exterior
Use a damp cloth to clean the outside. Never use
any sharp instruments, abrasive household cleaner,
or detergents for cleaning. For hard stains use
suitable washing liquid.
Stainless steel surfaces
It is recommended that only branded stainless steel
cleaning matarials are employed to clean stainless
steel surfaces.
Do not use abrasive household cleaning agents
scaoring pads, scraper knives or indulited liquid
detergents otherwise damage will occur to the
surface appearance.
Vitreous enamel hob surround
Clean with a cloth wrung out in soapy water.
Stubborn stains can be removed with a cream, paste
or liquid cleaner. Check that the cleaning agent
used is approved by the Vitreous Enamel
Development Council.
Hotplates
The cleaning of sealed hotplates should be done
when they are cold.
1 Wipe the hotplates with a little domestic non¬
scratch cleaning cream following the circular
grooved pattern on
the hotplate.
2 Wipe over with a
damp clean cloth,
making sure that all
the cleaner has been
removed.
3
Dry by switching on for a few minutes.
4
Apply a thin coat of cooking oil from time to
time to provide a protective coating.
Control panel
Wipe over the control panel with a damp cloth and
polish with a dry cloth. Do not use oven cleaners or
aerosols, scouring pads or abrasive powder for
cleaning the plastic knobs or end caps as damage
will occur. Do not attempt to remove any of the
control knobs from the panel as this may cause
damage and is a safety hazard.
Grill interior
Wipe the grill elements with a damp cloth (ensuring
they are sufficiently cool first) to remove any fat
splashes. This will prevent fumes from any fat being
burned off when the cooker is next used. 13
Oven interior
Remove the
rod shelves for
washing
in the sink. Use a
fine steel wool soap
pad for removing
stubborn stains from
the rod shelves and floor of the oven. Take care
during cleaning not to damage, bend or dislodge
from the surrounding clips the thermostat sensor
which is located at the top right hand side of the
oven.
Grill and Oven doors
Wipe over the door outer panels with a cloth wrung
out in hot soapy water, then after wiping with a
cloth wrung out in clean water, dry with a soft clean
cloth. Do not use scouring pads or abrasive powder
which may scratch the surface. Take care during
cleaning not to damage or distort the door seal.
Ensure that the door seal is dry after cleaning. Do
not lift the door seal.
Over time...
• Slight discolouration of liners and other surfaces may
occur in time. This does not affect the
functioning of the appliance.
• The metal rings around the hotplates discolour
when in use due to the heat. This is normal, is
not a fault and operation of hotplates is not
affected.
