Cleaning and Maintenance

Before cleaning switch the oven off and let it cool down.

The appliance must not be cleaned with a superheated steam cleaner or a steam jet cleaner.

Important: Before carrying out any cleaning operation, the appliance must be disconnected from the power supply.

To ensure a long life for your appliance, it is necessary to perform the following cleaning operations regularly:

-Only perform when the oven has cooled down.

-Clean the enamelled parts with soapy water.

-Do not use abrasive cleaners.

-Dry the stainless steel parts and glass with a soft cloth.

-If there are stubborn stains, use commercially available for stainless steel or warm vinegar.

The oven’s enamel is extremely durable and highly impermeable. The action of hot fruit acids (from lemons, plums or similar) can however leave permanent, dull, rough marks on the surface of the enamel. However such marks in the brightly polished surface of the enamel does not affect the operation of the oven. Clean the oven thoroughly after every use. This is the easiest way to clean dirt off. It prevents dirt being burnt on.

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 liquid detergent 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

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 is used. Do not use paint scrapers to remove soilage.

DO NOT clean the oven door while the glass panels are warm. If this precaution is not observed the glass panel may shatter.

If the door glass panel becomes chipped or has deep scratches, the glass will be weakened and must be replaced to prevent the possibility of the panel shattering. Contact your local Service Force Centre who will be pleased to advise further.

Oven Cavity

The enamelled base of the 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.
