HOW ‘STAY CLEAN’ WORKS
The surface of the ‘Stay clean’ oven liners are treated on the mottled face with a special
vitreous enamel which absorbs cooking soils. At temperatures of 220˚C (425˚F) or above, the
special surface enables these soils to be slowly destroyed. The higher the temperature
the more effective it is. In most cases normal cooking operation at this temperature will
permit this cleaning operation to proceed during cooking. However if higher cooking
temperatures are not used regularly it may be necessary, to prevent heavy soiling, to run
the oven without rod shelves or a meat pan at maximum setting for a couple of hours.
This may be necessary once a month or once every two or three months, depending on
the type and amount of oven cooking.
‘STAY CLEAN’ OVEN LINERS
It should not normally be necessary to clean the oven liners.
If the user feels it is desirable to do so remove the rod shelves and wash the side panels
in warm soapy water followed by rinsing in clear water.
GRILL/TOP OVEN
Remove the rod shelf, grill pan and the wire grid food support. It is best to wash these
items immediately after use to prevent stains from being burnt on when used again.
Wipe out the grill/oven compartment, use a fine steel wool soap pad to remove any
stubborn stains left on the floor of the compartment.
MAIN OVEN

CLEANING MATERIALS TO AVOID
1.
Plastic or nylon pads
2.
Household abrasive powders and scourers, these may scratch the surface.
3.
Oven chemical cleaners, aerosols and oven pads.
4.
Caustic cleaners, these will etch the surface and attack the metal frame.
5. Bath and sink cleaners may mark the surface.
NOTE:
We do not recommend the use of decorative covers over the hot hotplates as these can
hold condensation and cause corrosion. Accidental operation with a cover in place can cause
intense heat. Never place saucepan lids on the hotplates, as this may cause corrosion.
