Main Oven
The oven has removable panels that have been coated with a special enamel that partly cleans itself. This does not stop all marks on the lining, but helps to reduce the amount of manual cleaning needed.
The Cook & Clean panels work better above 200°C. If you do most of your cooking below this temperature, occasionally remove the panels and wipe with a lint free cloth and hot soapy water. The panels should then be dried and replaced and the oven heated at 200°C for about one hour. This will ensure the Cook & Clean panels are working effectively..
Don’t use steel wool (Brillo) or any other materials that will scratch the surface. Don’t use oven cleaning pads.
Removing the Oven Linings
Some of the lining panels can be removed for cleaning and for cleaning behind. Remove the shelves first.
The side panels of either oven can be removed.
Each side of the oven is fixed with four fixing screws. You don’t have to remove the screws to remove the oven linings. Lift each side panel upwards and they will slide off the screws. Then pull them forwards.
Once the linings are removed, the oven enamel interior can be cleaned.
Troubleshooting
Steam is coming from the oven
When cooking foods with a high water content (e.g. oven chips) there may be some steam visible at the rear grille. Take care when opening the oven door, as there may be a momentary puff of steam when the oven door is opened. Stand well back and allow any steam to disperse.
The oven fan is noisy
The note of the oven fan may change as the oven heats up - this is perfectly normal.
What cleaning materials are recommended for the cooker?
See the ‘Cleaning’ section for recommended cleaning materials. We do not recommend Mr. Muscle, as it contains chemicals that may damage the surfaces of your cooker.
Grill not cooking properly
Are you using the pan and trivet supplied with the cooker? Is the pan being used on the runners, not the floor of the compartment? Is the grill pan pushed fully back to stop?
When you pull the grill pan forward is the wide rim at the front? It's important that the wider part is at the front.
The knobs get hot when I use the oven or the grill, can I avoid this?
Yes, this is caused by heat rising from the oven or the grill, and heating them up. Don’t leave the oven door open. Make sure that the grill pan is pushed right back to the ‘back stop’ when grilling.
If there is an installation problem and I don’t get my original installer to come back to fix it who pays?
You do. Service organisations will charge for their call- outs if they are correcting work carried out by your original installer. It’s in your interest to track down your original installer.
Current Operated Earth Leakage Breakers
Where the cooker installation is protected by a
30 milliamp sensitivity residual current device (RCD), the combined use of your cooker and other domestic appliances may occasionally cause nuisance tripping. In these instances the cooker circuit may need to be protected by fitting 100mA device. This work should be carried out by a qualified electrician.
