Oven Cavity
The enamelled 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. If the soilage has become set, after the oven has cooled down, the following process will help to soften the splatters to help make cleaning easier. 1. Place the grill/ meat pan on the oven shelf positioned in the lowest runner. 2. Add a few drops of wasing-up liquid to the pan and fill to about 12 mm. with boiling water from the kettle.
3. Close the oven door, select the Fan Oven function and set the temperature on 50°C. 4. After 15 minutes, set the temperature on zero and allow the fan oven to continue without heat for a further 5 minutes, when the temperature of the water will have cooled down. 5. Carefully remove the pan of water from the oven and use normal oven cleaners to clean away soil residues. 6. Leave a little of the soapy water to soak into any burned on spillage on the floor of the oven for a longer time if necessary.
Oven Shelves and Shelf Supports
To clean the oven shelves and the shelf supports, soak in warm soapy water and remove stubborn marks with a well wetted soap impregnated pad. Rinse well and dry with a soft cloth. The shelf supports can be removed for easy cleaning (see diagram). Please, ensure the retaining nuts are secure when refitting the shelf support.
Grease Filter
To prevent a build-up of fats on the fan impellor, the grease filter must be fitted by clipping it over the vents in the back panel. To clean the grease filter When the oven has cooled down, remove the filter by pushing the protruding tongue on the filter upward, and wash carefully. The grease filter should be cleaned after every use. The filter may be washed in a dishwasher on a 65°C wash. If the filter is heavily soiled, place the filter in a saucepan of water with approximately 1 teaspoon of automatic washing powder or dishwasher powder. Bring to the boil and leave to soak for approximately 30 minutes or longer depending on the degree of soiling. Ensure the solution does not boil over as it could mark your hob. Rinse filter in clear water and dry. Remember to refit the filter before using the oven again.
