Hints and tips Hints and tips when using the hob • • • • • • • Lift, rather than slide saucepans on and off the hob. This will reduce the risk of scratches and metal marks from saucepans with aluminium bases. Metal marks can be easily cleaned off providing they are not allowed to burn on. Follow any guidelines provided by the saucepan manufacturer, particularly those relating to recommended heat settings. Avoid using thin, badly dented or distorted saucepans. Those with uneven bases should not be used.
• • • • The material and finish of the baking tray and dishes used affect base browning. Enamelware, dark, heavy or non-stick utensils increase base browning. Shiny aluminium or polished steel trays reflect the heat away and give less base browning. • It is recommended that when baking larger quantities the shelf positions should be evenly spaced to suit the load being cooked. A slight increase in cooking time may be necessary.
Care and cleaning WARNING! Before cleaning always allow the appliance to cool down before switching off at the electricity supply. 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. Harsh abrasives and scourers should also be avoided.
To remove burnt on foodstuff • We strongly recommend the use of a Ceramic Hob Scraper (incorporating a single edge razor blade) to remove spillage on the hob, in particular sugar solutions, which if not removed can cause permanent damage. • Make sure the ceramic glass is cool. • Use a ceramic hob scraper with care at an angle of 30° to remove as much foodstuff as possible. • Use hob cleaner or cream cleaner to finish off as directed above.
• The vitreous enamel main oven base and grill compartment base can be cleaned using normal oven cleaners with care. Ensure that the manufacturers instructions are followed and that all parts are well rinsed afterwards. WARNING! Aerosol cleaners must not come into contact with elements, the door seal, or any painted finishes as this may cause damage. • Covering joints during cooking will also prevent splashing onto the interior surfaces.
Top Oven: • Carefully push the trim towards the oven and lift off. • Hold the door glass securely in place with one hand before sliding the glass out with the other hand. Main Oven: • Carefully push the trim towards the oven. • Hold the door glass securely in place with one hand before sliding the glass out with the other hand. Please contact your local service force centre who will be pleased to advise further.
Replacing an oven light bulb • The type of bulb required is a 300°C 25 watt small Edison Screw. WARNING! Disconnect the appliance from the electricity supply before replacing the bulb. • • • • • • • 32 Make sure the appliance is cool before replacing the bulb. Open the door and remove the shelves.
