Cleaning and care

PerfectClean

Before using for the first time remove any stickers from PerfectClean surfaces.

The enamelled surfaces of the baking tray, universal tray and anti-splash insert (if applicable) have been treated with a special type of enamelling called "PerfectClean".

This surface has very good anti-stick properties and is much easier to keep clean than conventional oven enamel, if cleaned regularly.

Food can be taken off it more easily, and soiling from baking and roasting is easier to remove.

The following notes on cleaning and care should ensure that the anti-stick and easy clean properties of PerfectClean last for many years.

PerfectClean surfaces can be treated as you would treat glass.

Food can be sliced or cut up on the PerfectClean surface in the same way as on a baking tray with conventional enamel.

Allow the oven and any accessories to cool down before cleaning. Danger of burning.

Normal soiling

Clean as soon as possible after each use with a dishcloth, soft sponge or a soft nylon brush, and a solution of hot water and a little washing-up liquid. The longer soiling is left, the harder it may become to remove.

Stubborn soiling

Stubborn soiling, e.g. from roasting, may need to be soaked first with a damp sponge to loosen it and if necessary a non-abrasive stainless steel spiral pad or a scraper suitable for glass can be used to remove it.

After cleaning, rinse thoroughly with clean water. The water must run off the surface easily. Any residual cleaning agents will hinder this effect.

Using oven sprays on very stubborn soiling

Some oven cleaners contain strong alkalines and / or abrasive materials. Because PerfectClean enamel is designed to be easily cleaned, the use of these cleaners is not recommended. However, if you still cannot get the surface clean, an oven cleaner can be used, but for a couple of minutes only.
