General Notes On Cleaning - Hoover H-OVEN 300 User Instructions

General notes on cleaning

The lifecycle of the appliance can be extended
through regular cleaning. Wait for the oven to
cool before carrying out manual cleaning op-
erations. Never use abrasive detergents, steel
wool or sharp objects for cleaning, so as to not
irreparably damage the enamelled parts. Use
only water, soap or bleach-based detergents
(ammonia).
GLASS PARTS
It is advisable to clean the glass window with
absorbent kitchen towel after every use of
the oven. To remove more obstinate stains,
you can use a detergent-soaked sponge, well
wrung out, and then rinse with water.
OVEN WINDOW SEAL
If dirty, the seal can be cleaned with a slightly
damp sponge.
Waste management and environmental protection
This appliance is labelled in
accordance with European Di-
rective 2012/19/EU regarding
electric and electronic appli-
ances (WEEE). The WEEE con-
tain both polluting substances
(that can have a negative ef-
fect on the environment) and base elements
(that can be reused). It is important that the
WEEE undergo specific treatments to cor-
rectly remove and dispose of the pollutants
and recover all the materials. Individuals can
play an important role in ensuring that the
WEEE do not become an environmental prob-
lem; it is essential to follow a few basic rules:
- the WEEE should not be treated as domestic
waste;
- the WEEE should be taken to dedicated col-
lection areas managed by the town council or a
registered company.
In many countries, domestic collections may
be available for large WEEEs. When you buy a
new appliance, the old one can be returned to
the vendor who must accept it free of charge
as a one-off, as long as the appliance is of an
equivalent type and has the same functions as
the purchased appliance.
ACCESSORIES
Clean accessories with a wet, soapy sponge
before rinsing and drying them: avoid using
abrasive detergents.
DRIP PAN
After using the grill, remove the pan from the
oven. Pour the hot fat into a container and
wash the pan in hot water, using a sponge and
washing-up liquid.
If greasy residues remain, immerse the pan in
water and detergent. Alternatively, you can
wash the pan in the dishwasher or use a com-
mercial oven detergent. Never put a dirty pan
back into the oven.
SAVING AND RESPECTING THE ENVIRON-
MENT
Where possible, avoid pre-heating the oven
and always try to fill it. Open the oven door as
infrequently as possible, because heat from
the cavity disperses every time it is opened.
For a significant energy saving, switch off the
oven between 5 and 10 minutes before the
planned end of the cooking time, and use the
residual heat that the oven continues to gen-
erate. Keep the seals clean and in order, to
avoid any heat dispersal outside of the cavity.
If you have an electric contract with an hour-
ly tariff, the "delayed cooking" programme
makes energy saving more simple, moving the
cooking process to start at the reduced tariff
time slot.
Note: This product contains one or more light
sources of energy efficency class G (Lamp) / F
