Cleaning
WARNING
Switch off the appliance and allow it to
cool before cleaning is to be carried out.
General Instructions
•
Check whether the cleaning materials
are appropriate and recommended by
the manufacturer before use on your
appliance.
•
Use cream cleaners or liquid cleaners
which do not contain particles. Do
not use caustic (corrosive) creams,
abrasive cleaning powders, rough
wire wool or hard tools as they may
damage the cooker surfaces.
Do not use cleaners that contain
particles as they may scratch the
glass, enamelled and/or painted parts of
your appliance.
•
Should any liquids overflow, clean
them immediately to avoid parts
becoming damaged.
Do not use steam cleaners for
cleaning any part of the appliance.
Cleaning the Inside of the Oven
•
The inside of enamelled ovens are best
cleaned while the oven is warm.
•
Wipe the oven with a soft cloth soaked
in soapy water after each use. Then,
wipe the oven over again with a wet
cloth and dry it.
•
You may need to use a liquid cleaning
material occasionally to completely
clean the oven.
Catalytic Cleaning (*Optional)
Catalytic liner is installed within the oven
cavity. It is the matte-finished, light-
coloured panel at the rear of the oven.
They work by collecting any grease and
oil residue during cooking. Catalytic liners
are designed to have a working life of
about 300 hours.
The liner self-cleans by absorbing fats
and oils and burning them to ash, which
can then be easily removed from the
floor of the oven with a damp cloth. The
lining must be porous to be effective. The
liner may discolour with age.
If a large amount of fat is spilled onto
the liner it may reduce its efficiency. To
overcome this problem, set the oven to
maximum temperature for about 20 - 30
minutes. After the oven has cooled, wipe
out the floor of the oven.
Manual cleaning of the catalytic liners
is not recommended. Damage will occur
if a soap-impregnated steel wool pad
or any other abrasives are used. In
addition, we do not recommend the use
of aerosol cleaners on the liners. The
walls of a catalytic liner may become
ineffective due to excess grease. The
excess grease can be removed with a soft
cloth or sponge soaked in hot water, and
the cleaning cycle can be carried out as
