A 900mm wide oven will accommodate a 2/1 gastronorm tray. Single trays or dishes
should be placed centrally. Trays must not be allowed to overhang the shelf in any
direction as this will adversely affect heat circulation. In particular, NEVER block the space
beyond the rear shelf upstand.
Preheat time
Allow at least 15 minutes from lighting a cold oven before a full load of food may be
cooked. Put food in quickly and close the doors firmly.
SECTION 4 - CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
All surfaces are easier to clean if spillages are removed before they become burnt on and
if units are cleaned daily.
Stainless steel surfaces
These surfaces should be cleaned with hot water and detergent then dried and polished
with a soft cloth.
Cleaning agents containing bleach, abrasives or caustic chemicals will damage or mark
the stainless steel surfaces and must not be used.
Vitreous Enamel Surfaces
Approved cleaning agents which have the mark of the Vitreous Enamel Association are
recommended.
It is advisable to clean daily after use. Wipe clean the vitreous enamel surfaces while
they are still warm using a soft cloth and hot soapy water. Badly stained, removable parts
should be soaked in hot water with an approved detergent. If the parts are not removable
from the unit the application of warm water with approved detergent using nylon or scotch
cleaning pads will give good results.
Hotplate
Burner cleaning should be carried out daily. Burner efficiency will be reduced significantly if
recommended cleaning is not carried out.
1. Remove pan supports and hotplate burner caps Wash all parts with hot soapy water
according to detailed instructions enclosed at end of section.
2. After washing, dry all parts well and ensure all water is removed from inside burner
head.
3. The hob may be lifted off for cleaning purposes. Using the front left hand and right hand
burner apertures lift the front of the hotplate upwards to an angle of approximately 45°
and then pull the hotplate forward.
4.
Re-fitting the hotplate: Rest hotplate on the top of the appliance at 45° and slide back
until the rear flange is under the vent trim. Then lower the hotplate onto the side panels.
5. Dry off the pan supports by hand. NEVER LEAVE THESE TO DRY NATURALLY.
Hotplate Burners
The following instructions should be followed when:
•
A spillage has occurred on the burner.
•
The burner fails to light or stay alight.
•
At the end of each day or cooking period.
Caution:
Parts may be hot therefore protection to avoid burns should be used.
1. Remove pan support.
2. Remove burner cap and skirt by lifting upward.
3. Thoroughly clean with soap and water. Ensure all burner ports are clean and free from
food or cleaning material debris.
Important:
Stubborn debris lodged in ports can be removed using a non metal implement
such as a cocktail stick. The base should be cleaned of debris using a soft brush. Dry
burner caps with soft cloth and blow through the ports to ensure there is no blockage.
4. Clean any spillage from burner skirts, ensuring all food and cleaning material debris is
removed. Dry burner skirts thoroughly, taking care not to damage the flame sensor.
Important:
Do not allow any spillage or cleaning material debris to enter the large hole in
