CLEANING THE GRILL AND OVEN FURNITURE
All removable parts, except the grill pan handle can be washed in the dishwasher.
The grill pan, grill pan grid and oven shelves may be cleaned using a soap impregnated steel wool pad. Soaking first in hot soapy water will make cleaning easier.
CLEANING INSIDE THE OVEN AND GRILL COMPARTMENTS
The Stayclean surface on the rear oven panel should not be cleaned manually.
The vitreous enamel oven base and sides in the grill compartment and the fan oven base and sides can be cleaned using normal oven cleaners or aerosol
oven cleaners with care. Ensure that the manufacturers instructions are followed and that all parts are well rinsed afterwards.
Aerosol cleaners must not be used on the Stayclean surface rear oven panel and must not come into contact with elements as this may cause damage.
HINTS AND TIPS

The Stayclean surface destroys splashes of food and fats when the oven temperature is raised to around 220°C.
It is a good idea to run the oven for an hour or two per week to ensure good performance from the Stayclean finish.
Slight discolouration and polishing of the Stayclean surfaces may occur in time. This DOES NOT affect the Stayclean properties in any way.

Use minimal, if any, extra oil or fat when roasting meat, potatoes only require brushing with fat before cooking. Extra fat in the oven during roasting will increase splashing and soilage.
It is not necessary to add water to a meat tin when roasting. The water and the fat juices from the joint create excessive splattering during cooking even at normal temperatures as well as causing condensation.
Covering joints during cooking will also prevent splashing onto the interior surfaces. Removing the covering for the last
