How the Self-Cleaning panels work.
The self-cleaning oven panels go through a special enamelling process which ultimately creates a
rough surface (this is the side which should face outwards in the oven). Because of the structure
of the surface, it is extremely porous and attracts oxygen. When splashes of grease hit this
surface it immediately spreads. In this way, immediate oxidization of the grease occurs, and it
ultimately disappears while the oven is in general use at standard cooking temperatures. The
self-cleaning panels are located on the sides and on the rear of the oven, and are designed to
cope with fatty stains very efficiently.
For stains on the bottom of the oven, the usual causes are sugar or starch overflows. The base of
the oven should cleaned by using soapy water (see procedure to page 15-16) on a soft clean and
newspaper
BEWARE: Never use silicone films (polish or cleaners) on self-cleaning panels - they will
be rendered useless.
Similarly, NEVER try to wash with detergent, or use abrasive cleaners on the panels.

Removing Oven Door

To remove the oven door
The oven door can be easily removed for better access while cleaning. To remove the oven door:
1. Open the door fully and fit the supplied pin in the hole on both hinges.
2. Raise the door slightly, holding the sides of the door about half way up. Make sure
the pin stays in the hole the entire time. Lift the door gently. This should
disconnect the hinges from the oven frame.
3. Remove the door by continuing to raise it while pulling the door away from the oven.
When handling the door be careful not to dislodge the pin from the hole. If the pin
does dislodge, the hinge will have to be closed by hand and the pin re-fitted onto the
hole before re-fitting into the oven.
To re-fit the oven door:
1. Holding the door at an angle to the oven, slide the hinges into the oven frame, making
sure that on each side the top curved arm fits into the top slot and the lower arm fits
into the bottom slot.
2. Make sure the hinges are pushed as far as they will go and the lower arm engages
into the plate mounted in the oven frame.
3. Open the door fully and ensure the pin fully disengages from the hole. The door can
now be opened and closed as normal.
NOTE: Apply gentle downward pressure on the door to help remove the pins.
