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 base of the 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.
Replacing The Oven Light
Disconnect the appliance
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
Centre. To replace the faulty bulb:
1. Ensure the oven is isolated from the electrical supply.
2. Push in and turn the glass cover anticlockwise.
3. Remove the faulty bulb and replace with the new one.
4. Refit the glass cover and restore the electrical supply.
FO 2823
Stainless steel or aluminium appliances:
We recommend that the oven door is only cleaned using
a wet sponge and dried after cleaning with a soft cloth.
Never use steel wool, acids or abrasive products as they
can damage the oven surface.
Clean the oven control panel following the same
precautions.
