Cleaning
the
cooktop
Once the appliance is cold, clean it with a sponge and soapy water. Remove any spills
immediately. This will avoid unnecessary
work
later
.
Allow burners and trivets to cool down before cleaning them.
The burners and trivets must be cleaned regularly to keep them in good condition. This is
done by submerging them in soapy water and scrubbing them with a non-metal brush to
keep the ports and slots free from obstructions so they give a perfect flame. Dry the burner
caps and trivets whenever wet or damp. Do not wash the burner caps and trivets in a
dishwasher.
After cleaning and drying ensure that the burner heads and caps are replaced correctly on
the burner body
For cookers fitted with a stainless steel hob the high temperatures generated by using the
wok burner may cause the stainless steel hob of your hotplate to become discoloured over
time. THIS IS NORMAL. Clean the hob with a product suitable for cleaning stainless steel
.
Never use abrasive products, sharp objects, steel scouring pads, knives, etc., to remove
stubborn food remains from the hob surface, trivets, burners and oven interior
.
Do not allow acidic products such as vinegar, lemon juice etc., to come into contact with
the hob
.
Cleaning
the
oven interior
Clean the oven enamelled floor, wire shelves and shelf supports with hot detergent suds.
This oven is fitted with self cleaning linings on the roof, sides and back of the oven. The
liners are covered with a special micro-porous enamel that absorbs and removes fat
residue during baking. Should any liquid fat splatter onto the liners, self cleaning action
may not be adequate. In this case the liners may be wiped with a damp sponge. Mild
detergent may be used but no chemical cleaners. After this, heat the oven to the
maximum temperature for a period of 30 minutes. If the stains persist wait until the oven
has cooled down and repeat the above precedure. Important: always clean the enamelled
surfaces and wire components prior to starting the 30 minute heat cleaning cycle.
It is recommended that the oven interior be cleaned regularly as excessive build-up of fat
can become a fire hazard.
Cleaning
the
oven shelf supports
To remove the shelf supports remove the knurled knobs either side, lift the wire
rack and swing forwards
