CLEANING
THE ELECTRICITY SUPPLY MUST BE
SWITCHED OFF BEFORE CLEANING
All exterior surfaces are hard wearing.
easily cleaned and impervious to all
normal heat and spillage encountered
during cooking. Vitreous enamel can be
chipped by a hard blow and reasonable
care should be exercised. The exterior
surfaces including the oven doors should
be cleaned using a little detergent in hot
water. and polished with a soft cloth.
Mirrored finishes on control panels and
oven doors will continue to look as good
as new if they are cleaned with spray
liquid kitchen cleaners or mirror/kitchen
cleaners e.g. 'Windolene Plus', "SOS spray
cleaner'. 'SOS glass cleaner or 'Jif Spray n'
foam. DO NOT use oven cleaners or
furniture polish as they will leave
permanent marks on the mirrored finish.
Similarly cleaners which contain bleach
should not be used as they may dull the
surface. Harsh abrasives may also affect
the finish and should not be used. When
removing parts of the cooker for cleaning,
we recommend that they are not subjected
to thermal shock, 1.e. do not plunge a very
hot grill pan or meat pan into warm or
cold water.
Note:
Befete using any proprietary oven
cleaner, ensure that it is suitable for
application on polished surfaces, e.g.
chromium, anodized aluminium, stainless
steel, vitreous enamel. Certain cleaners
may have an adverse effect.
CLEANING THE CERAMIC HOB
Make sure that the glass ceramic surface
is cool before applying any cleaning
materials.
1. Save on cleaning time:
e Make sure the bottom of the utensils and
cooking areas are clean and dry.
e Select correct heat settings and use
saucepans large enough to accommodate
food and liquid to eliminate boilovers and
spattering.
e If possible, wipe up food spills and
splatters from adjacent heating areas
before using areas for cooking.
2. Daily Care:
Use Cleaner Conditioner daily. As it
cleans, it leaves a protective coating of
silicone on the smooth surface which helps
prevent scratches and abrasions in which
food particles can collect. It also helps
prevent build-up of mineral deposits and
will make future cleaning easier.
e Apply a dab of Cleaner Conditioner in
the centre of each heated area to be
cleaned (and for normal cleaning, start
with about % / 5ml (tea) spoon of Cleaner
Conditioner and apply more if needed).
e Dampen clean paper towel and clean
unit. To remove more stubborn sojlage use
a Slightly dampened non-impregnated
plastic or nylon pad specially made for
non-stick utensils, e.g. Scotchbrite or
Vileda non-stick pan cleaners.
¢ Wipe off this application with another
clean, damp paper towel and wipe dry.
3. Regular weekly care:
e Use "Ajax" or "Vim" Powder Cleaner
regularly at least two or three times a week
to remove any discolouration and build up
of deposits. especially in hard water areas.
A non-impregnated plastic or nylon pad
specially made for non-stick utensils. e.g.
Scotchbrite or Vileda non-stick pan
cleaners may also be used with the Powder
Cleaner for vigorous rubbing.
e Apply Cleaner Conditioner and polish
with kitchen paper or a soft dry cloth.
e Any smearing or hazing on the surface
may be removed with lightly dampened
kitchen paper and polished with a soft dry
cloth.
