Care of catalytic liners

Catalytic liners destroy splashes of food and fats when the oven temperature is raised to around 220°C.

To aid this process it is a good idea to run the oven for an hour or two per week, without food, to ensure continued good performance from the Catalytic liners.

Hints and Tips

•Manual cleaning of the Catalytic liner is not recommended. Damage will occur if soap impregnated steel wool pads, aerosol cleaners and any other abrasives are used.

•Slight discolouration and polishing of the Catalytic surface may occur in time. This does not affect the Catalytic properties in any way.

•Follow the recommendations in “Cooking to reduce soilage”.

Cooking to reduce soilage

Cook at the recommended temperatures. Higher temperatures during roasting will increase soilage. Try cooking at lower temperatures for an increased length of time, you will save energy and often the joint is more tender.

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 the 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 from this method of cooking, allowing the joint to cook through before the outside is overbrowned.

Do use the roasting tin. During roasting, the fat from the joint will be contained beneath the trivet and therefore prevent it from splattering onto the 'Catalytic' liner.

Cleaning the hinged grill

This model has been fitted with a hinged grill element to enable you to clean the roof of the oven easily.

Before proceeding ensure the oven is cool and is disconnected from the electricity supply.

1) Undo the screws which hold the grill in place (see diagram 26). When carrying out this operation for the first time, we recommend using a screwdriver.

2) Then gently pull the grill downward to allow access to the oven roof (see diagram).

3) Clean the oven roof with a suitable cleaner and wipe dry before replacing the hinged grill element.

4) Gently push up the grill element into place and firmly screw into place the holding nuts.

Ensure the grill holding nuts are firmly in place to avoid the grill falling down when in use.
