Cleaning
WARNING! Isolate the power supply to the appliance and make sure that the oven is
cool.
Before cleaning your oven or performing maintenance switch off the power and
make sure that the cooking mode selection knob and the cooking temperature
selection knob are set to ‘OFF’. To extend the life of your oven, it must be cleaned
frequently.
The inside of the oven should preferable be cleaned immediately after use, when it is
still warm (but not hot), with warm water and soap.
The soap should be rinsed away and the interior dried thoroughly. Avoid using
abrasive detergents, scourers, acidic cleaners such as lime scale remover, etc, as
these could damage the enamel, and can result in development of rust and
corrosion. If stains are particularly tough to remove, use cleaners specifically
recommended to clean ovens and follow the instructions provided with the cleaner.
Never use a steam cleaner for cleaning inside the oven.
Do not clean using caustic creams, abrasive cleaning powders, thick wire wool or
hard tools. Enameled parts of the oven can be damaged if excess cleaning liquids are
not immediately removed.
After cleaning the interior parts of the oven with a soapy cloth, rinse it and then dry
thoroughly with a soft cloth.
Clean the glass surfaces with special glass cleaning agents.
Never use flammable agents like acid, thinner or petrol when cleaning your oven.
Do not clean your oven with a steam cleaner.
Do not wash any part of your oven in a dishwasher.
Enameled Parts:
In order to keep enameled parts as new, it is necessary to clean them frequently with
mild warm soapy water and then dry with a cloth. Do not wash them while hot and
never use abrasive powders or abrasive cleaning materials. Do not leave anything
spilled onto enameled parts for long periods of time.
Stainless Steel:
Stainless steel parts must be cleaned frequently with mildly warm soapy water and a
soft sponge and then dried with a soft cloth. Do not use abrasive powders or
abrasive cleaning materials. Do not leave anything spilled on stainless steel parts for
long periods of time.
