The high quality vitreous enamel used in your St George oven has a hard durable finish which
is resistant to wear and discolouration and makes cleaning easy. However, to maintain the
appearance and durability of the finish, it is best to wipe off any spills or spatters immediately.
This can be done while the oven is still warm. Thoroughly wipe out your oven after each use.
Commercial oven cleaners may be used in a cool oven, but choose only the non-caustic
types and follow manufacturer’s instructions. Always avoid contact with elements, rubber
door seals and exterior surfaces. After cleaning be sure to thoroughly rinse and wipe down all
surfaces with a clean, soft cloth.
Remove any residue from the oven cleaner thoroughly to avoid corrosion of metal fifnishes.
Never use the oven to dry out oven cleaners as they can produce a highly corrosive
chemical reaction that will attack the enamel. Never allow any element or burner on the
appliance to be turned on (except the oven light) while there is oven cleaner in the oven
compartment.
For easier cleaning and access, the shelves and shelf guides can be lifted out as explained
earlier in this section. They can then be washed by hand or placed into a dishwasher for
cleaning.
Pull down doors only: When necessary the oven door may be removed for better access
while cleaning. (Refer to the relevant section for directions on the correct way to remove the
oven door.)

Cleaning
Standard
Enamel
Self cleaning panels cover the rear and side walls
and top of the oven cavity. They are coated in
a special, micro-porous catalytic enamel which
oxidises and gradually vapourises splashes of
grease and oil at cooking temperatures above
200°C. If the oven is not clean after cooking fatty
foods, operate the empty oven for 60 minutes
(max.) at maximum temperature to allow the
liners to vapourise any residue.
Occasionally the panels may need cleaning, or
you may need to access the side walls of the
oven. Never wash or clean self cleaning panels
with abrasive, acid, or alkaline products.
Removing And Replacing The Self-Cleaning
Catalytic Panels
Maintenance
IMPORTANT - SWITCH THE OVEN OFF COMPLETELY
BEFORE REMOVING THE REAR FAN GUARD.
To remove the panels, first remove the shelf guides
as explained earlier. Undo the panel locking screws from the rear fan cover, as shown. The
panels should now slide out quite readily.
To replace the panels, it will be easiest if you follow this procedure:
Put the side panels into position
Put the shelf guides into the holes in the rear panel. You will need to lift the side panels off
the floor of the oven for the holes to line up.
With the side panels already off the oven floor, put the rear fan cover in position, line up all
the holes and replace the two locking screws.
