Cleaning
WARNING!
Isolate the power supply to the appliance and make sure that the cooker is cool.
Before cleaning your cooker or performing maintenance, make sure that the cooking mode selection knob
and the cooking temperature selection knob is set to ‘OFF’. To extend the life of your cooker, it must be
cleaned frequently. The inside of the cooker should preferably be cleaned immediately after use, when it is
still warm (but not hot), with warm water and soap. The soap should be rinsed away and the interior dried
thoroughly. Avoid using abrasive detergents, scourers, acidic cleaners such as lime scale remover, etc, as
these could damage the enamel, and can result in the development of rust and corrosion. If stains are
particularly tough to remove, use cleaners specifically recommended to clean cookers and follow the
instructions provided with the cleaner.
Never use steam cleaner for cleaning inside the cooker.
Do not clean using caustic creams, abrasive cleaning powders, thick wire wool or hard tools. Enamelled parts of
the cooker can be damaged if excess cleaning liquids are not immediately removed.
After cleaning the interior parts of the cooker with a soapy cloth, rinse it and then dry thoroughly with a soft
cloth.
Clean the glass surfaces with special glass cleaning agents.
Never use flammable agents like acid, thinner or petrol when cleaning your appliance.
Do not clean your cooker with a steam cleaner.
Do not wash any part of your cooker in a dishwasher.
Enamelled Parts:
In order to keep enamelled parts as new, it is necessary to clean them frequently with mild warm soapy water
and then dry with a cloth. Do not wash them while hot and never use abrasive powders or abrasive cleaning
materials. Do not leave anything spilled onto enamelled parts for long periods of time.
Stainless Steel:
Stainless steel parts must be cleaned frequently with mildly warm soapy water and a soft sponge and then
dried with a soft cloth. Do not use abrasive powders or abrasive cleaning materials. Do not leave anything
spilled onto stainless steel parts for long periods of time.
