Advice to help reduce cleaning required
Any stains that may appear on the bottom of the oven will have originated from food
splashes or spilt food, these splashes occur during the cooking process. These could
possibly be a result of the food being cooked at an excessively high temperature or being
placed in cookware that is too small.
You should select a cooking temperature and function that is appropriate for the food that
you are cooking.
You should also ensure that the food is placed in an adequately sized dish and that you
use the drip tray where appropriate.

cleaning and maintenance of the glass front panel.
