Cleaning your cooker
Essential information
Before thorough cleaning isolate the electricity
supply. Remember to switch on the electricity
supply and reset the clock before using the
cooker.
Never use paint solvents, washing soda,
caustic cleaners, biological powders,
bleach, chlorine based bleach cleaners,
coarse abrasives or salt. Don’t mix
different cleaning products - they may
react together with hazardous results.
Recommended cleaning materials are
shown in the chart below.
All parts of the cooker can be cleaned with hot
soapy water -
but take care that no surplus
water seeps into the appliance.
For cleaning materials see the ‘Cleaning Table’ at
the end of this section.
Hotplate burners
Some models have a separate trim ring, which
fi ts on the burner head.
The burner heads and caps can be removed
for cleaning. Make sure they are absolutely dry
before replacing.
