'Stay Clean' Liners
'Stay Clean' liners are covered with a special enamel which absorbs cooking soils. At higher temperatures the soiling is slowly destroyed. In most cases normal cooking at higher temperatures will permit this cleaning to take place automatically. However, if higher cooking temperatures are not used regularly then it may be necessary, in order to prevent heavy soiling, to run the oven at maximum temperature for at least two hours, from time to time. The 'Stay Clean' liners can be washed in warm soapy water followed by rinsing in clear water. Dry well with a soft cloth.
NOTE: Do not use enzyme washing powder, harsh abrasives or chemical oven cleaners of any kind.
Oven Fittings
The oven shelves can be cleaned either in a dishwasher or by using a fine steel wool soap pad. The grill can be cleaned in warm soapy water using a fine steel wool soap pad to remove stubborn stains or in a dishwasher.
They should be cleaned after each use.
Oven Interiors
To clean the oven interiors remove all the oven fittings and where applicable the 'Stay Clean' liners. All types of oven cleaners can be used, but do not allow abrasive cleaners or oven spray to come into contact with the 'Stay Clean' liners. Use a fine steel wool soap pad to remove stubborn stains.
Oven Door Cleaning
The inner door glass panel can be removed for easy cleaning, see “Care and Cleaning”.
Cooker Exterior
The outside of the cooker should be cleaned regularly to keep it looking like new. Wipe over with a soft cloth wrung out in warm water and dry with a soft clean cloth. You can use mild non abrasive cleaners but always read the manufacturer's instructions first. Always test their suitability on a small area of the cooker not noticeable in normal use.
NOTE: DO NOT use scouring pads or abrasive cleaners as they may scratch the surface. Wear protective gloves when cleaning any part of your cooker.
