AEG 4006G-M user manual Recommended cleaners, Routine cleaning

Recommended cleaners

Mild detergents and warm water together with a clean, soft, non-abrasive cloth achieve good results for normal cleaning. Diluted washes with ammonia and water should rinse away any adhesive residue or gummy deposits on the appliance surfaces. Eucalyptus oil (small amounts) is also good for removing adhesive residue. Alcohol based products (eg: methylated spirit, etc.) are not recommended. Brand name cream cleansers and concentrates, without abrasive qualities, can be used in small amounts to break down greasy deposits and dirt. After cleaning make sure cleaned surfaces are thoroughly rinsed to prevent any risk of baked on cleaner residues and wipe dry with a clean, soft cloth.

NOTE:

When cleaning stainless steel surfaces AEG recommend 3M brand stainless steel cleaner. Other reputable brand cleaners specifically formulated for cleaning stainless steel may also be acceptable. Do not use steel soap pads or abrasive scourers of any kind. The abrasive qualities of these pads will ruin the even brushed finish of the stainless steel and any residual metal fibers may corrode causing a rusty/dull appearance. Metal polishes with abrasive qualities are also not recommended.

WARNING:

Do not use any acid or caustic cleansers or harsh abrasive cleaners or sharp metal scrapers to clean the oven door glass since they can scratch the surface, which may result in shattering of the glass.

Routine cleaning

Ensure all controls are in the off position and the appliance is cool before cleaning. When wiping stainless steel surfaces with a brushed finish, wipe in the same directions as the brushing.

To clean the oven interior, fully open or remove the door (top opening type, see opposite page) for better access while cleaning. The shelves and shelf guides can be lifted out for cleaning by removing the relevant thumb screws. The shelves and shelf guides can be washed manually but are also dishwasher safe.

If using commercial oven cleaners, choose only non-caustic cleaners and follow the manufacturer’s instructions. Avoid contact with elements, rubber door seals and exterior surfaces.

After cleaning make sure all surfaces are thoroughly rinsed and wiped dry with a clean, soft cloth.

DO NOT USE A PORTABLE STEAM CLEANER TO CLEAN THE OVEN.
