Oven Cavity
The enamelled oven cavity is best cleaned
whilst the oven is still warm.
Wipe the oven over with a soft cloth soaked in
warm soapy water after each use. From time to
time it will be necessary to do a more thorough
cleaning, using a proprietary oven cleaner.

The hob is best cleaned whilst it is still warm, as
spillage can be removed more easily than if it is
left to cool.
Regularly wipe over the hob top using a soft
cloth well wrung out in warm water to which a
little washing up liquid has been added. Avoid
the use of the following:

" impregnated pads unsuitable for non-stick
