Care & Cleaning
The Kleenmaid line of ovens feature a
pyrolytic self-cleaning function that eliminates
the difficult and time consuming manual
scrubbing of the oven interior.
During self-cleaning the oven uses very high
temperature (approx. 450°C) to burn away soil
and grease. The fumes produced during this
function of the oven are then filtered and
expelled.
You will note however, that a powder ash
residue will be left on the bottom of the oven
after completion of self-cleaning. Once the
oven has cooled sufficiently the residue may
be removed using a damp cloth or sponge.
See the instructions on use of the self-clean
(pyrolytic) function on Page 11.
For parts of the oven other than the oven
cavity the following cleaning methods are
recommended:
•
Control Panel
Use warm soapy water or spray glass
cleaner to clean the control panel. With a
soft cloth or sponge wash, rinse and dry
the control panel thoroughly. DO NOT use
abrasive cleaners or steel wool pads.
These will damage the surface.
•
Stainless Steel
To clean, use a standard cleaner
designed for stainless steel. We
recommend Kleenmaid Stainless Steel
Liquid Cleaner CSSL or Kleenmaid
Stainless Steel Pump Pack Cleaner
CSSPP. Follow manufacture instructions.
DO NOT USE ABRASIVE MATERIALS
SUCH AS STEEL WOOL OR ROUGH
SPONGES. THEY WILL SCRATCH THE
SURFACE.
•
Front of Oven Door(s) and Handle(s)
Use warm, soapy water or spray glass
cleaner to clean the glass door surface.
With a soft cloth or sponge, rinse and dry
the door front(s) and handle(s) thoroughly.
DO NOT use abrasive cleaners or steel
wool pads. These will damage the surface.
•
Grill Pan and Rack(s)
Use warm soapy water. With a steel wool
pad wash, rinse and thoroughly dry the
pan and/or rack(s). DO NOT clean the grill
pans or racks by leaving them in the oven
when running the Self-Clean function.
•
Door & Frame Outside Door Gasket Area
Make sure oven is cool. Use warm soapy
water. With a non-abrasive plastic
scrubbing pad, clean the frame surface &
area outside the door gasket. This area
must be cleaned by hand because the
area outside the gasket does not get hot
enough to burn off the soil (see Figure 6).
•
Do not rub or clean the door gasket
.
The material of the gasket has an
extremely low resistance to abrasion. An
intact and well fitting oven door gasket is
essential for energy efficient oven
operation and good baking results. If you
notice the gasket becoming worn, frayed
or damaged you should have it replaced.
Figure 6.
WARNING!
Make sure all controls are Off and the
oven is cool before cleaning. Failure to
do so can result in burns or electrical
shock.
