Before cleaning always allow the cooling fan to cool
the cooker down before switching off at the electricity
supply.
The oven should be kept clean at all times. A build-
up of fats or other foodstuffs could result in a fire,
especially in the grill pan.
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.
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 clean the oven door while the glass
panels are warm. If this precaution is not
observed the glass panel may shatter.
If the door glass panel becomes chipped or has deep
scratches, the glass will be weakened and must be
replaced to prevent the possibility of the panel
shattering. Contact your local Service Force Centre
who will be pleased to advise further.
Cleaning the Oven
Oven Cavity
The enamelled oven cavity is best cleaned whilst the oven is
still warm.
Wipe the oven over with a soft cloth soaked in warm soapy
water after each use. From time to time it will be necessary
to do a more thorough cleaning, using a proprietary oven
cleaner.
If the soilage has become set, after the oven has cooled
down, the following process will help to soften the splatters
to help make cleaning easier.
F
1. Place the grill/ meat pan on the oven shelf
positioned in the lowest runner.
2. Add a few drops of washing-up liquid to the pan
and fill to about 12 mm. with boiling water from the
kettle.
3. Close the oven door, turn the oven function knob
on conventional oven
( )
and set the thermostat
knob on 50°C.
4. After 15 minutes, turn off the thermostat and allow
the oven to continue without heat for a further 5
minutes, when the temperature of the water will have
cooled down.
5. Carefully remove the pan of water from the oven
and use normal oven cleaners to clean away soil
residues.
6. Leave a small amount of soapy water to soak into
any burned on spillage on the floor of the oven for a
longer time if necessary.
Replacing The Oven Light
If the oven bulb needs replacing, it must comply with the
following specifications:
- Electric power:
15W,
- Electric rate:
230-240V (50 Hz),
- Resistant to temperatures of 300°C,
- Connection type: E14.
These bulbs are available from your local Service Force
