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.
Oven Shelves and Shelf Supports
Clean the oven shelf support before proceeding
to the catalytic cleaning of the oven.
To clean the oven shelves and the shelf supports, soak in warm soapy water and remove stubborn marks with a well wetted soap impregnated pad. Rinse well and dry with a soft cloth.
The Oven door gasket
The correct operation of the oven is ensured by a gasket placed round the edge of the oven cavity.
•Periodicallycheck the condition of this gasket. If necessary, clean it without using abrasive cleaning products.
•If the gasket shows to be damaged, call you local Service Centre. Do not use the oven until it has been repaired.
Shelf Supports and Catalytic Panels
The shelf supports and the catalytic panels can be removed for easy cleaning.
Make sure that the appliance is completely cooled before carrying out this operation.
Proceed as follows:
1)remove the front screw while keeping the shelf support and the catalytic panel in position with the other hand (see diagram 1);
2)keep the shelf support and the catalytic panel in position and lift them with a hand while disengaging the rear hook.Take off the shelf support and the catalytic panel (see diagram 2);
3)once the cleaning is carried out, fit the shelf support and the catalytic panel together and mount them following the procedure in reverse.
Please, ensure the retaining nuts are secure when refitting the shelf support and the catalytic panel.
To clean the oven shelves, soak in warm soapy water and remove stubborn marks with a well wetted soap impregnated pad. Rinse well and dry with a soft cloth.
DO NOT attempt to clean catalytic enamel which covers the left, right sides of the oven cavity.
Care of catalytic liners
Catalytic liners (except for the oven base) destroy splashes of food and fats when the oven temperature is raised to around 220°C.
To aid this process 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 Catalytic liners.
Hints and Tips
•Manual cleaning of the Catalytic liner is not recommended. Damage will occur if soap impregnated steel wool pads, aerosol cleaners and any other abrasives are used.
•Slight discolouration and polishing of the Catalytic surface may occur in time. This does not affect the Catalytic properties in any way.
