DEALING WITH COOKING PROBLEMS CLEANING THE COOKER

Ovens and hotplates are made from steel and enamel.

Do not use abrasives and harsh scourers as they may

scratch the surface.

Enamel

• Keep enamel clean by wiping it with a soft cloth

dipped in warm soapy water.

• Rub difficult stains with a nylon scourer or cream

powder cleanser.

• DO NOT use abrasive cleaners, powder cleaners, steel

wool or wax polishes.

• If you use an oven cleaner, follow the instructions on

the product carefully.

Stainless Steel

• All grades of stainless steel can stain, discolour or

becomes greasy. Clean the cooker regularly, using the

procedures outlined below, to maintain the function

and appearance of your appliance.

• Care must be taken when wiping exposed stainless

steel edges as they can be sharp.

• The front frame around the oven can be cleaned

with stainless steel cleaners if it comes soiled or

discoloured.

• A suitable cleaner can be purchased from Electrolux

Customer Care Centres.

• Always clean the stainless steel in the direction of the

grain. Going against the grain may scratch the surface.

Oven Shelves

• Chrome shelves: use detergent and hot water. If very

dirty use a non-abrasive nylon scourer.

Oven – Grill Dish and Insert

• After every use and while still warm, wash pan and

grill with warm soapy water and a suitable oven

cleaner. Rinse and dry before replacing in position.

Oven

• Use detergent, warm water (and household cloudy

ammonia if necessary) and a soft cloth. Dry thoroughly.

cleaner, following the instructions on the cleaning

product carefully. Heat oven to 110°C and turn

oven off when 110°C is reached. Leave over-night.

The door glass on this appliance is made from tough

durable material that withstands heating and cooling

without breaking. However it must be remembered that

it is glass, it may break. Treat it accordingly!

Should you have any questions about the glass in your

appliance, please contact the customer care centre by

calling 13 13 49 (Australia) or 0800 436 245

(New Zealand). Do not use harsh cleaners or sharp

metal scrapers to clean the oven door since they can

scratch the surface, which may result in shattering of

the glass.

• Remove all spilt food and fat with the supplied razor

blade scraper, while the ceramic glass is still warm but

not hot. Wipe clean with dishwashing detergent on a

damp cloth.

• If aluminium foil, plastic items or high sugar content

foods are allowed to melt on the ceramic glass, clean

immediately with the supplied razor blade scraper

before the surface has cooled down, otherwise pitting

of the surface can occur.

and fruit, but also vegetables such as peas, tomatoes and

carrots.

• When the ceramic glass is cool, apply a suitable

ceramic glass cleaner.

• It is important to follow the cleaner manufacturer’s

instructions. Remove any cleaning residue from the

surface as staining of the cooktop may occur.

• Do not use abrasive sponges or scourers, as they may

scratch the surface.

• Any pitting, staining, scratches or other surface

deterioration is excluded from the warranty.

• All stains/water marks can be removed by vigorous

cleaning, using a ceramic glass cleaner.

marks under the ceramic glass. These can be cleaned

with a razor blade scraper and ceramic cleaner.
