finishes. Harsh abrasives should also be
avoided.
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
washing up liquid has been added.
To prevent damaging or weakening the door
glass panels avoid the use of the following:
lHousehold detergent and bleaches
lImpregnated pads unsuitable for
non-stick saucepans
lSteel wool pads
lChemical oven pads or aerosols
lRust removers
lBath/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 is
used.
DO NOT clean the oven door while the
glass panels are warm. If this precaution
is not observed the glass panel may
shatter.
If the door glass panel becomes chipped
or has deep scratches, the glass will be
weakened and must be replaced to prevent
the possibility of the panel shattering.
Contact your local Service Centre who will
be pleased to advise further.
Oven Cavity
The enamelled oven cavity 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
will be necessary to do a more thorough
cleaning, using a proprietary oven cleaner.
Grease Filter
To prevent a build-up of fats on the fan
impellor, the grease filter must be fitted by
clipping it over the vents in the back panel.
To clean the grease filter
When the oven has cooled down, remove
the filter by pushing the protruding tongue
on the filter upward, and wash carefully.
The grease filter should be cleaned after
every use. The filter may be washed in a
dishwasher on a 65°C wash. If the filter is
heavily soiled, place the filter in a saucepan
of water with approximately 1 teaspoon of
automatic washing powder or dishwasher
powder. Bring to the boil and leave to soak
for approximately 30 minutes or longer
depending on the degree of soiling. Ensure
the solution does not boil over as it could
mark your hob.
Rinse filter in clear water and dry.
Remember to refit the filter before using
the oven again.
