40 Care and cleaning
Important!
Before you start cleaning your oven, please:
Read these cleaning instructions and the ‘Safety and warnings’ section at the start of this user
guide.
Turn the oven off at the wall.
Make sure the oven is a safe temperature to touch.
Do not use a steam cleaner.
Do not keep flammable substances in the oven.
General advice
Wipe out the oven after every use.
Wipe up spills. Avoid leaving alkaline or acidic substances (such as lemon juice or vinegar) on
the oven surfaces.
Do not use cleaning products with a chlorine or acidic base.
Cleaning the outside of the oven
Important!
Do not use abrasive cleaners, cloths or pads on the outside surfaces of the oven.
Immediately wipe off any caustic cleaners if they are spilled onto the oven door handle.
Wipe the oven’s outside surfaces often, using warm water and a mild household detergent. The
stainless steel may also be cleaned with a suitable cleaner and polish.
Note: if you choose to use a commercial stainless steel cleaner, please read the label to make
sure it does not contain chlorine compounds as these are corrosive and may damage the
appearance of your oven.
