Electrolux EOB944 - Cleaning and Care

CLEANING AND CARE
A No heating element must be switched on
during the cleaning procedure. Make sure
that the oven has cooled down in a way
that one may get in touch with interior
parts without any danger. Only the func¬
tion selector may be switched on for oven
lighting.
Steam and high pressure cleaning units
are not suitable for cleaning because of the
requirements of electrical safety.
Cleaning materials
Before using any cleaning materials on your oven,
check that they are suitable and that their use is
recommended by the manufacturer.
Cleaners that contain bleach should not be used as
they may dull the surface finishes. Harsh abrasives
should also be avoided.
Clean enamelled cavity
The enamelled oven base is best cleaned whilst the
oven is still warm.
Wipe the oven over with a soft cloth soaked in warm
soapy water after each use. From time to time it may
be necessary to do a more thorough cleaning, using a
proprietary cleaner.
If the soilage has become set, after the oven has
cooled down, the following process will help to soften
the splatters to help make cleaning easier:
1. To preheat the oven set the function selector to fan
oven @ and the temperature control to 50°C for
5 minutes.
2. Heat up water in a saucepan on your hob and
remove before boiling.
3. Fill the grill pan to about 12 mm with heated water
and add a few drops of washing-up liquid.
4. Place the grill pan on the oven shelf positioned in
the lowest runner. Close the oven door.
5. After 15 minutes, turn off the temperature control
and allow the fan oven to continue without heat for
a further 5 minutes, when the temperature of the
water will have cooled down.
6. Carefully remove the grill pan from the oven and
use normal oven cleaners to clean away soil
residues.
7. Leave a little of soapy water to soak into any
burned on spillage on the floor of the oven for a
longer time if necessary.
Cleaning the oven roof
This oven has been fitted with a hinged grill element to
enable you to clean the roof of the oven more easily.
Position both thumbs to the left and right on the outside
oven frame. With your fingers grip in the front bend of
the heating element and draw it off its mounting to the
front. The element can now be lowered to allow access
to the oven roof.
Wipe the oven roof over with a soft cloth soaked in
warm soapy water.
After cleaning gently push the element into position
and draw in again to clip the element into the mounting.
We recommend the interior of the oven is
cleaned after every use, as a build up of fats and
grease can be a fire hazard.
From time to time it may be necessary to carry out a
more thorough cleaning, using a proprietary oven cleaner.
Wire shelves, grill pan and shelf
runners
Oven accessories should be cleaned with hot soapy
water.
External cleaning
Regularly wipe over the control panel, oven door and
door seal using a soft cloth well wrung out in warm
water to which a little liquid detergent has been added.
A To prevent damaging or weakening the door
glass panels avoid the use of the following:
• Household detergent and bleaches.
• Impregnated pads unsuitable for non-stick
saucepans.
* Brillo/Ajax pads or steel wool pads.
• Chemical oven pads or aerosols.
• Rust removers.
• Bath/Sink stain removers.
Clean the outer and inner door glass using warm
soapy water. Should the inner door glass become
heavily soiled it is recommended that a cleaning
product such as Hob Brite is used.
Removal and installation of the
runners
For easier cleaning you may remove the entire
shelving parts from the oven inside.
For this purpose slightly lift the runners in the middle
and take them out of the oven.
Re-location in the reverse sequence : insert the hook
and firmly press down.
