CARE AND CLEANING
ALWAYS SWITCH OFF THE ELECTRICITY SUPPLY AT THE MAIN WALL SWITCH AND ALLOW THE COOKER TO COOL BEFORE CLEANING
CLEANING MATERIALS
Before using any cleaning materials on your cooker, check that they are suitable and that their use is recommended by the manufacturer.
CLEANING THE BRASS PLATED HANDLES - WHERE FITTED
It is strongly recommended that only hot soapy water is used for cleaning the door handles. Any other cleaning materials will dull the brass plated finish.
CLEANING THE OUTSIDE OF THE COOKER
DO NOT use abrasive cleaning materials, or scourers on the outside of the cooker as some of the finishes are painted and damage may occur. Cleaners that contain bleach should NOT be used as they may dull the surface finishes. Regularly wipe over the splashback, hob, doors and cooker sides using a soft cloth and liquid detergent.
DO NOT ATTEMPT TO REMOVE ANY OF THE CONTROL KNOBS FROM THE PANEL AS THIS MAY CAUSE DAMAGE AND IS A SAFETY HAZARD.
CLEANING THE HOB AND
HOTPLATE TRIMS
Clean the hob surface with liquid detergent or a mild abrasive cream cleaner, e.g. Jif.
The chrome hotplate trims are removable for cleaning, and can be washed in the dishwasher. The hotplate supports should NOT be removed.
CLEANING THE GRILL DEFLECTOR, GRILL AND OVEN FURNITURE
All removable parts, with the exception of the grill pan handle can be washed in the dishwasher.
The grill pan, grill deflector and oven shelves can be cleaned using a soap impregnated steel wool pad. The grill pan grid should be cleaned using hot soapy water. Soaking first in soapy water will make cleaning easier.
CLEANING INSIDE THE OVEN AND GRILL COMPARTMENTS
The vitreous enamel in the grill compartment and the oven top and base can be cleaned using normal oven cleaners or aerosol oven cleaners with care.
Ensure that the manufacturers instructions are followed and that all parts are well rinsed afterwards.
Aerosol cleaners must not be used on the Stayclean side linings and must not come into contact with elements as this may cause damage.
CARE OF STAYCLEAN SURFACES
Your cooker has oven linings which are coated with a special finish to help make cleaning the oven easier.
The Stayclean surfaces destroy splashes of food and fats when the oven temperature is raised to around 220°C.
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 Stayclean finish.
