Cleaning
Cleaning by hand. Make sure the oven is cool before cleaning.
The catalytic liners should be cleaned using a solution of hot water and washing-up liquid applied
with a soft nylon brush. Do not wash these liners in the dishwasher.
Do not use abrasive cleaning agents, hard brushes, scouring pads or cloths, steel wool, knives or
other abrasive materials. Do not use oven spray on catalytic enamel as the chemicals used in oven
sprays will damage catalytic liners and render them unusable.
If using oven sprays on the interior oven surfaces, the catalytic liners must first be removed from
the oven.
Should the panels become heavily soiled, they will need to be taken out of the oven and cleaned
by hand. They should be soaked in warm, soapy water for at least 2 hours and then wiped clean
with a soft cloth.
Cleaning with high temperatures
Before cleaning the catalytic liners using high oven temperatures make sure that all interior oven surfaces
have been cleaned as described above. Otherwise, the high temperatures can bake deposits onto the
interior oven surfaces and make them impossible to remove.
Note that deposits of spices, syrups and similar substances are not removed by this process. These should
be removed by hand with a mild solution of hot water and washing-up liquid applied with a soft brush.
Remove all accessories from the oven.
Set the oven to conventional function.
Set the heat to 250 °C.
Run the oven for approximately 1 hour. The length of time will depend on the degree of soiling.
It is a good idea to set the finish time for the process using the end time setting, in case you forget to switch
the oven off at the end.
Any remaining soil will gradually disappear with each subsequent use of the oven at high temperatures. The
stains on the catalytic liners caused by grease, fats and oils from cooking are completely normal and will
not be able to be completely removed. Catalytic liners are a consumable item and can be replaced with
new catalytic liners.
NOTE: Solid cleaning powders, creamy cleansers, caustic oven cleaners, steel wool or other
scourers will ruin the catalytic surface and must NEVER BE USED.
Remove the side racks and fitting side catalytic liners
Unclip the bottom of the side rack from the lug.
Lift the side rack up to disengage the hooks.
The side rack should now be free to be pulled in towards the centre of the oven.
Repeat process for the other side.
Place catalytic liner on the side wall of the oven aligning the holes at the top.
Refit the side racks by inserting the top of the rack into the holes through the catalytic liner.
Clip bottom of rack into position over lug.
