24 electrolux e:line ovens catalytic self cleaning panels
Catalytic self cleaning panels (where fitted)
Operation
Catalytic self clean panels are coated with a specially
formulated enamel coating, over a base of regular enamel.
This enamel coating has a rough surface which is also
porous. During normal cooking, fats and other food splatter
is partially absorbed into the surface and then oxidises
away.
This oxidisation of the fat works best if the oven is set at
high temperatures, You will find that if you do a lot of lower
temperature baking, say around the normal 180°C,
then the cleaning process may not be complete. Every
now and then you should turn the oven on to 250°C for
around one hour to completely remove the soil.
Cleaning
Should the panels become heavily soiled, they will need to
be taken out of the oven and cleaned by hand. They should
be soaked in warm, soapy water for at least 2 hours and
then wiped clean with a soft cloth.
Note:
• I t is not recommended that the catalytic liner in the top
of the oven be removed.
caution
Solid cleaning powders, creamy cleansers, caustic oven
cleaners, steel wool or other scourers will ruin the catalytic
surface and must NEVER BE USED.
