MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING

The oven should be kept clean at all times. A build-up of fats or other foodstuffs could result in a fire, especially in the grill pan.

Before cleaning, ensure all control knobs are in the OFF position, and the appliance has cooled completely.

Before any maintenance or cleaning can be carried out, you must DISCONNECT the cooker from the electricity supply.

Cleaning materials

Before using any cleaning materials on your oven, check that they are suitable and that their use is recommended by the manufacturer.

Cleaners that contain bleach should NOT be used as they may dull the surface finishes. Harsh abrasives should also be avoided.

External cleaning

Regularly wipe over the control panel, oven door and door seal using a soft cloth well wrung out in warm water to which a little washing up liquid has been added.

To prevent damaging or weakening the door glass panels avoid the use of the following:

Household detergent and bleaches

Impregnated pads unsuitable for non stick saucepans

Brillo/Ajax pads or steel wool pads

Chemical oven pads or aerosols

Rust removers

Bath/Sink stain removers

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 Door Glass

The internal oven door glass can be removed for cleaning. For this purpose remove the 2 fixing screws. Clean the outer and inner door glass using warm soapy water. Should the inner door glass become heavily soiled it is recommended that a cleaning product such as Hob Brite, or Bar Keepers Friend be used.

Always support the door while removing the glass panel as the door may spring closed due to its lighter weight.

Removing the Oven Door

1.Open the door completely.

2.Turn the two locking levers (1) on the hinge arms fully upwards.

3.Hold the oven door at the sides using both hands and close the door partially to a 30o angle.

4.Lift the door and pull out.

Hanging the Oven Door

1.Hold the oven door at the sides using both hands and hold the door at an angle of approx 30o.

2.Introduce and then push the hinges into the cut-outs on the front of the oven, ensuring that the supports (2) of the hinge arms are correctly placed in the cut-outs (3) of the hinge support.

3.Turn the locking levers (1) fully downwards.
