Do not use steel wool, oven cleaning pads, or any other
materials that will scratch the surface.
Removing the Main Oven Linings
Some of the lining panels can be removed for cleaning. You
will need to remove the shelves before removing the panels.
Each side of the oven is fixed with four fixing screws. You do
not have to remove the screws to remove the oven linings.
Simply lift each side panel upwards and they will slide off the
screws (Fig.5-6). Then pull them forwards.
Once the linings are removed, the oven enamel interior can
be cleaned.
