2.CARE OF THE COOKER

2.1IMPORTANT

2.4Use hot soapy water and a cloth to clean the enamel surfaces and finish with a soft dry cloth to avoid streaking.

2.5We recommend you allow your cooker to cool fully before cleaning and carrying out any maintenance work.

2.6VITREOUS ENAMEL FINISH

The coloured surfaces of the cooker are finished in vitreous enamel. Care should be taken as this finish can be damaged by dropping objects onto surfaces or cleaning with metal scrapers or wire wool. Burnt-on food may be removed by carefully using a plastic scraper or plastic cleaning pad when the cooker is cool.

2.7CLEANING THE HOTPLATE

Some natural discolouration and marking of the hot plate will occur during use of the cooker.

Burnt-on food may be removed by carefully using a plastic scraper or plastic cleaning pad when the cooker is cool.

Use hot soapy water and a cloth to clean and finish with a soft dry cloth. Some light surface rust may occasionally appear on the hot plate, this may be removed by using a cleaning pad and polishing with a small amount of cooking oil.

2.8CLEANING THE OVEN

The internal surfaces of the oven are finished with vitreous enamel. These may be cleaned using a non- abrasive oven cleaner and any burnt-on food may be removed by carefully using a plastic scraper or plastic cleaning pad when the cooker is cool.

The door glass may be cleaned by using Stovax glass cleaner and a soft cloth. Then wipe with warm soapy water and a cloth, to neutralise any remaining cleaner, and finish with a soft dry cloth.

NEVER use caustic, citric or abrasive cleaning products on your cooker because these may scratch or damage its surfaces.

2.2ALWAYS try to wipe up spillages when they happen.

2.3You will get better results if you clean your cooker when it is cool.

3.USING THE COOKER FOR THE FIRST TIME

3.1When new, it is best to burn the cooker at a low output for the first few days of use. This will allow the construction to settle and all fixing glues and paint to fully cure.

3.2Avoid touching any painted finish during the first period of use.
