10 CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

GB-IE

Before carrying out any operations, disconnect the appliance from the electricity supply. Take the plug out of the socket or switch off the oven’s power circuit.

Warning! Never use a jet of steam for cleaning the inside of the oven.

Warning! Your microwave oven should be cleaned regularly, with all food remains being removed. If the microwave is not kept clean its surfaces may deteriorate, reducing the oven’s working life and possibly resulting in a dangerous situation.

10.1 Cleaning stainless steel

To keep stainless steel in good condition, it must be cleaned regularly, after each use of the oven, after allowing it to cool.

10.2 Routine daily cleaning

When cleaning and caring for stainless steel surfaces, always use only specific products which do not contain abrasives or chlorine-based acids. Instructions for use: pour the product onto a damp cloth and wipe over the surface, then rinse thoroughly and dry with a soft cloth or chamois leather.

10.3 Food stains or spills

Never use metal scouring pads or sharp scrapers which will damage the surface.

Use ordinary non-abrasive products with the aid of wooden or plastic utensils if necessary. Rinse thoroughly and dry with a soft cloth or chamois leather.

Do not allow spills of foods with high sugar content (e.g. jam) to dry inside the oven. If they dry for too long, they might damage the enamel coating of the inside of the oven.

Do not use harsh abrasive cleaners or sharp metal scrapers to clean the oven door glass since they can scratch the surface, which may result in shattering of the glass.

10.4 Cleaning the oven cavity

Cleaning is the only maintenance normally required.

After each time the oven is used, clean the inside walls with a damp cloth since this is the easiest way to remove splashes or spots of food that may have stuck to the inside.
