Care and Cleaning

CLEANING THE DOORS

Take particular care not to damage the inner surface of the door inner glass that is coated with a heat reflective layer. Do not use scouring pads, or abrasive powder, which will scratch the glass.

Ensure that the glass panel is not subjected to any sharp mechanical blows.

Stubborn stains can be removed by using a fine steel wool soap pad. For slight soiling the inner glass panel may be cleaned, while still warm, without removing it from the door. After cleaning, rinse and dry with a soft cloth.

DROP DOWN DOORS

Remove the door inner glass as follows.

1.Open the door fully and remove the extrusion top filler cap. (This should be done by removing both screws, one on each side of the door - see below pic, then simply lift the inner glass out of position).

NOTE: If you need to use a tool - be careful not to damage the extrusion or end cap.

2.Carefully slide the inner glass towards you and withdraw it from its locating slots. Ensure that the door is not allowed to slam shut, due to the reduction in door weight.

Clean the glass as described above.

3.The inside of the outer door glass can now be cleaned while still fitted to the cooker.

Top filler cap

Remove two screws, to remove top filler cap

NEVER OPERATE THE COOKER WITHOUT THE INNER DOOR GLASS IN POSITION.

Refit the door inner glass as follows.

1.Open the door fully.

2.Locate the inner door glass into its slots, so that the printing is readable from the face nearest the oven in the closed position and the widest black band is towards the bottom of the door. The inner door glass has a special reflective coating on one side, in order to minimise surface temperatures and energy consumption during use, it is important it is fitted correctly.

3.Carefully slide the glass into its slots as far as it will go and replace the top filler cap.
