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.
Cleaning and Maintenance
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.
DO NOT clean the oven door while
the glass panels are warm. If this
precaution is not observed the glass
panel may shatter.
