CLEANING MATERIALS Before using any cleaning materials on your appliance, check that they are suitable and that their use is recommended by the manufacturer. Cleaners that contain bleach should NOT be used as they may dull the surface finishes. Abrasives must also be avoided to prevent damaging the stainless steel or painted finishes. See 'Cleaning the Outside of the Appliance' on page 22. WHEN REPLACING HOTPLATE BURNER PARTS 1. Cap to crown Place cap centrally on the top of crown (enamel side up). Check for ignition If a burner will not light then you need to check the crown and cap positions. CLEANING THE HOB The hotplate Clean the hotplate top using a mild abrasive such as 'Cif'. You can remove the pan supports, burner caps and burner crowns to clean them. Damage will occur if abrasives or aerosol sprays of any kind are used. Slight discolouration and polishing of the Stayclean surfaces may occur in time. After removing the roast, turn the oven up to 220°C and allow to run for an hour or so. It is important NOT to allow a buildup of soilage as this can prevent the Stayclean surfaces from working. Try cooking at lower temperatures for an increased length of time, you will save energy and often the joint is more tender. Use minimal, if any, extra oil or fat when roasting meat, potatoes only require brushing with fat before cooking. Extra fat in the oven during roasting will increase splashing and soilage. The water and the fat juices from the joint create excessive splattering during cooking - even at normal temperatures as well as causing condensation. Covering joints during cooking will also prevent splashing onto the interior surfaces. Removing the covering for the last 20-30 minutes will allow extra browning if required. Some large joints and turkeys especially benefit by this method of cooking, allowing the joint to cook through before the outside is over-browned. · · · · CLEANING BETWEEN THE OUTER AND INNER DOOR GLASS The outer door glass is removable for cleaning.
