CLEANING
NOTE
: Cleaning and maintenance operations must only be carried out when the oven and cooktop
are cool. The appliance should be isolated from your mains supply before commencing any cleaning
process.
Before starting to clean your oven or cooktop, be sure that all control buttons are off and your appliance is cooled
off.
Do not use cleaning materials containing particles that might scratch the enamelled and painted parts of your
oven. Use cream cleaners or liquid cleaners, which do not contain particles. As these cleaners may damage the
surfaces, do not use caustic creams, abrasive cleaning powders, rough wire wool or hard tools. Before using the
cleaning materials check whether they are appropriate and recommended for use by the manufacturer on your
oven. In the event of any excess liquids spilling over your oven surface during cleaning, clean up immediately so
as to prevent possible damage to the enamel or metal surface. Do not use steam cleaners for cleaning the oven.
Cleaning the Oven
You will obtain best results if you clean the oven interior while the oven is slightly warm. Wipe the oven with a
soft cloth that had been dampened in soapy water after each use, then wipe it with a wet cloth once more and
then dry it. It may be required to use a liquid cleaning material from time to time and completely clean the oven.
Do not clean with dry and powder cleansers.
Cleaning the Cooktop
Any residues that are left on the cooktop surface from cleaning agents may damage it. You should remove any
residues with water and a little washing up.
Abrasive cleaners or sharp objects will damage the cooktop surface. The cooktop should be cleaned using water
and a little washing up liquid.
Although it is easier to clean some deposits whilst the cooktop surface is still warm, you should take extra care
not to burn yourself. It is recommended to only clean the cooktop when cold.
After Each Use
Wipe the appliance over with a damp cloth and a little washing up liquid.
Dry the appliance by rubbing the surface with a clean cloth.
For non-stainless steel cooktop surfaces, a mild, non abrasive cream cleaner may only be used.
