CLEANING AND CARING FOR THE ELEVATED 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.
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.
• Remove shelves when the cleaning oven.
• If there is a build-up of grease use a suitable oven
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 fumes will loosen stubborn grease and stains.
Remove bowl, wash with hot, soapy water and dry
well before closing oven door again. Ensure oven is
thoroughly rinsed and dried before subsequent use.
WARNING
CAUTION
DO NOT remove the oven door when cleaning the oven.
WARNING
WARNING
Ensure the appliance is switched off at power supply (not
just the control knobs) before replacing the light globe to
avoid possibility of electric shock.
Ceramic Hotplates
Remove all spilt food with a razor blade scraper while the
hotplate is still warm – NOT HOT.
• If aluminium foil, plastic items or foods with a high
sugar content melt onto glass, use a razor blade
scraper to remove immediately before the hotplate
has cooled, otherwise pitting of the surface may
occur. High sugar content foods include jam, fruit,
carrots, tomatoes and peas.
• When the ceramic hotplate has cooled, wipe clean
with dishwashing detergent and a damp cloth.
NOTE: DO NOT use abrasive sponges or scourers, oven
sprays or stain removers on ceramic hotplates. These may
damage, scratch or stain the ceramic cooktop. Any pitting,
staining or scratching WILL NOT be covered by warranty.
Solid Hotplates
Solid hotplates are fitted with stainless steel trim rings,
which after initial use, change colour to light brown. This
is a normal characteristic of stainless steel and will not
affect the operation or performance of your hotplates.
• Clean off any spillage after hotplate has cooled down.
• At regular intervals, clean hotplate with a nylon
scouring pad and soapy water. Wipe clean then warm
hotplate for 30 seconds to dry the surface.
• Apply ‘hotplate protector’. Set hotplate on high for 3
minutes to allow coating to harden.
Gas Burners
• Flame port blockages should be removed with a
small metal cake skewer or nylon brush.
• Clean dirty spark plugs very gently with a nylon
scourer. Do not use steel wool. Do not bend spark
plug as it may break.
• If the caps, crowns and cups are heavily soiled, use a
non-abrasive cleaning compound.
• Do not clean these parts with abrasive or caustic
type cleaners, or clean in a dishwasher as they will
be damaged.
