Safety warnings for cleaning
• Make sure that the appliance is turned off before cleaning and removing and replacing parts.
• Always immediately clean up spilled food.
Cleaning products
• Do not use caustic based cleaners, as this appliance has aluminium fittings.

Cleaning enamel
• Rub stains with nylon scourer or cream powder cleanser or use an oven enamel cleaner.
Follow instructions on product carefully.
• Do not use harsh abrasive cleaners, powder cleaners, steel wool or wax polishers.
Cleaning stainless steel
All grades of stainless steel can stain, discolour or become greasy. You must clean these
areas regularly by following the procedures below, if you want your appliance to look its
best, perform well and have a long life.
Care must be taken when wiping exposed stainless steel edges…they can be
sharp!
• Wash with warm soapy water and rinse with clean water.
• If you want a better look, wipe your appliance with a suitable stainless steel cleaner
then wipe with a soft lint free cloth.
• Use a stainless steel cleaner only where the stainless steel is extremely dirty and / or
discoloured. A suitable cleaner can be purchased from Electrolux Service or Spares.
Note: Make sure you follow the polish or brushing lines in the steel.
Removing the oven door
Remove the oven door for better access when cleaning.
1 Open the door fully.
2 Rotate the two stirrups forwards so they are engaged
onto hooks on hinge arms
(see diagram opposite).
3 Hold the stirrups in place and slightly close the door.
The stirrups will now remain engaged.
4 Close the door halfway and lift it away from the oven.
Do not lift the door by the handle. Place one hand either side
of the door, keeping your fingers away from the hinge arms.
Replacing the oven door
1 Relocate both hinge arms at the same time into the housing on the oven front.
2 Make sure that the location notches on the bottom of the hinge arms are positioned
onto the lower cut-out lip.

4 When the hinges are located, open the door fully and make sure that the stirrups are
disengaged.
• Do not immerse the door in water.
