Control Panel and Doors
Avoid using any abrasive cleaners, including cream cleaners.
For best results, use a liquid detergent.
The same cleaner can be used on the doors, or alternatively,
using a soft cloth wrung out in clean hot soapy water – but
take care that no surplus water seeps into the appliance.
After cleaning, polish with a dry cloth.
Glass Fronted Door Panels
The oven door front panels can be taken off so that the glass
panels can be cleaned. Move the cooker forward to gain
access to the sides (see the
‘Moving the Cooker’
section under
‘Installation’
).
Open the oven door slightly and remove the front panel
fixing screws from the door sides, two each side
(Fig.5-11)
.
Carefully lift off the outer door panel. The inside face of the
glass panels can now be cleaned – take care not to disturb or
wet the door insulation.
Note:
If the door is triple glazed then the inner two panels are
fixed together and should not be separated. After cleaning,
carefully refit the outer door panel and replace the side fixing
screws.

DO NOT use harsh abrasive cleaners or sharp metal
scrapers to clean the
oven door glass since they can
scratch the surface, which may result in shattering of
the glass.

'Cook & Clean' Panels
The ovens have side ‘Cook & Clean’ panels which have been
coated with a special enamel that partly cleans itself. This
does not stop all marks on the lining, but helps to reduce the
amount of manual cleaning needed.
These panels work better above 200 °C. If you do most of your
cooking below this temperature, occasionally remove the
panels and wipe with a lint free cloth and hot soapy water.
The panels should then be dried and replaced and the oven
heated at 200 °C for about one hour. This will make sure that
the panels are working effectively.
DO NOT use steel wool, oven cleaning pads, or any other
materials that will scratch the surface.
Removing the Main Oven Linings
Some of the lining panels can be removed for cleaning. You
will need to remove the shelves before removing the panels.
Each side of the oven is fixed with four fixing screws. You do
not have to remove the screws to remove the oven linings.
Simply lift each side panel upwards and they will slide off the
screws
(Fig.5-12)
. Then pull them forwards.
Once the linings are removed, the oven enamel interior can
be cleaned.
