CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
Cleaning
WARNING: Switch off the appliance and allow it to cool before cleaning is
to be carried out.
General Instructions
- Check whether the cleaning materials are appropriate and recommended by the manufacturer before use on your appliance.
- Use cream cleaners or liquid cleaners which do not contain particles. Do not use caustic (corrosive) creams, abrasive cleaning powders, rough wire wool or hard tools as they may damage the cooker surfaces.
- Do not use cleaners that contain particles, as they may scratch the glass, enamelled and/or painted parts of your appliance.
- Should any liquids overflow, clean them immediately to avoid parts becoming damaged.
- Do not use steam cleaners for cleaning any part of the appliance.
Cleaning the Inside of the Oven
-
• The inside of enamelled ovens are best cleaned while the oven is warm.
• Wipe the oven with a soft cloth soaked in soapy water after each use. Then, wipe the oven over again with a wet cloth and dry it.
• You may need to use a liquid cleaning material occasionally to completely clean the oven. -
Catalytic Cleaning
Catalytic liners are installed within the oven cavity. These are the matte- finished, light coloured panels on the sides and/or the matte-finished panel at the rear of the oven. They work by collecting any grease and oil residue during cooking. -
The liner self-cleans by absorbing fats and oils and burning them to ash, which can then be easily removed from the floor of the oven with a damp cloth. The lining must be porous to be effective. The liner may discolour with age.
-
If a large amount of fat is spilled onto the liner, it may reduce its efficiency. To overcome this problem, set the oven to maximum temperature for about 20 – 30 minutes. After the oven has cooled, wipe out the floor of the oven.
-
Manual cleaning of the catalytic liners is not recommended. Damage will occur if a soap-impregnated steel wool pad or any other abrasives are used. In addition, we do not recommend the use of aerosol cleaners on the liners. The walls of a catalytic liner may become ineffective due to excess grease. The excess grease can be removed with a soft cloth or sponge soaked in hot water, and the cleaning cycle can be carried out as described above.
-
Removal of Catalytic Liner
-
To remove the catalytic liner, remove the screws holding each catalytic panel to the oven.
Cleaning the Ceramic Glass
- Ceramic glass can hold heavy utensils but may be broken if it is hit with a sharp object.
- WARNING : Ceramic Cooktops – if the surface is cracked, to avoid the possibility of an electric shock, switch off the appliance and call for service.
- Use a cream or liquid cleaner to clean the vitroceramic glass. Then, rinse and dry the glass thoroughly with a dry cloth.
- Do not use cleaning materials meant for steel as they may damage the glass.
- If substances with a low melting point are used in the cookware’s base or coatings, they can damage the glass-ceramic cooktop.If plastic, tin foil, sugar or sugary foods have fallen on the hot glass-ceramic cooktop, please scrape it off the hot surface as quickly and as safely as possible. If these substances melt, they can damage the glass-ceramic cooktop. When you cook very sugary items like jam, apply a layer of a suitable protective agent beforehand if it is possible.
- Dust on the surface must be cleaned with a wet cloth.
- Any changes in colour to the ceramic glass will not affect the structure or durability of the ceramic and is not due to a change in the material.
Colour changes to the ceramic glass may be for a number of reasons:
- Spilt food has not been cleaned off the surface.
- Using incorrect dishes on the hob will erode the surface.
- Using the wrong cleaning materials.
