Care and Maintenance
IMPORTANT
• Before any maintenance is started involving electrical parts, the
appliance must be disconnected from the power supply.
• If the oven has been in use, let the oven cavity and the heating
elements cool down before attempting any maintenance.
• Steam cleaners must not be used when cleaning this appliance.
•Once care and maintenance is complete, ensure that all parts are
correctly replaced before using the oven.
The oven exterior
As the oven has a stainless steel or enamel surface, you should use a
nonabrasive cleaner. Any abrasive cleaner (including Cif) will scratch
the surface and could erase the control panel markings. Stainless
steel can be eectively cleaned by simply using a dilute solution of
water and mild detergent and drying to a shine with a clean cloth.
Proprietary stainless steel cleaners are available. We recommend the
CDA E-Cloth available from the CDA Sales Team for cleaning stainless
steel surfaces as this has been designed to prolong the finish of your
appliance.
Inside of Oven
The oven should always be cleaned after use when it has cooled
down.
The cavity should be cleaned using a mild detergent solution and
warm water.
