Cleaning the shelves and
grill/oven furniture
All removable parts, can be washed in the
dishwasher.
The grill pan, grill pan grid and oven shelves
may be cleaned using a soap impregnated
steel wool pad. Soaking first in hot soapy
water will make cleaning easier.
Cleaning inside the oven(s)
The sides and back of the main oven
compartment are coated with a special
Stayclean coating. They should not be
cleaned manually.
The vitreous enamel main oven base and
grill/second compartment can be cleaned
using normal oven cleaners with care.
Ensure that the manufacturers instructions
are followed and that all parts are well rinsed
afterwards.
Aerosol cleaners must not come
into contact with elements, the door
seal, or any painted finishes as this
may cause damage.
Hints and tips
Aerosol cleaners must not be used
on Stayclean surfaces.
To carry out the cleaning cycle remove the
oven shelves and set the oven to 220°C.
It is a good idea to run the oven for an hour or
two per week to ensure continued good
performance from the Stayclean finish.
Slight discolouration and polishing of the
Stayclean surfaces may occur in time. This
DOES NOT affect the Stayclean properties in
any way.
Use minimal, if any, extra oil or fat when
roasting meat, potatoes only require brushing
with fat before cooking. Extra fat in the oven
during roasting will increase splashing and
soilage.
It is NOT necessary to add water to a meat tin
when roasting. The water and the fat juices
from the joint create excessive splattering
during cooking – even at normal
temperatures, as well as causing
condensation.
Covering joints during cooking will also
prevent splashing onto the interior surfaces.
Removing the covering for the last 20-30
minutes will allow extra browning if required.
Some large joints and turkeys especially
benefit by this method of cooking, allowing
the joint to cook through before the outside is
over-browned.
