How to clean the Zanussi Oven Door?
The following instructions explain how to disassemble the oven door as it is supplied by the Manufacturer. Please note that the references to the right or left side have to be switched depending on the oven model.
- Figure 1. With both hands hold the perforated plate A in position and push it out upwards.
- Figure 2. Hold the inner glass B tightly with both hands and remove it from its original position by sliding it upwards.
Make sure that glass B is firmly held to avoid that the glass heel over and fall down.
After removing the inner glass, clean the oven door and the glass. We recommend to clean the oven door using only a wet sponge and dry it after cleaning with a soft cloth. Never use steel wool, acids or abrasive products as they can damage the surface.
After cleaning, place the inner glass back in its original position by inserting it in the rubber distance holders C.
The inner pane B (with side decors) must be arranged with the decorated surface to the inner side of the door. The slight roughness of the printing must not be discernible when you stroke your fingers over the visible surface.
After placing the inner glass back:
- Figure 3. Insert the perforated plate A back in its original position and check that everything is securely fastened and firm.
DO NOT clean the oven door while the glass panels are warm. If this precaution is not observed the glass panel may shatter. If the door glass panel becomes chipped or has deep scratches, the glass will be weakened and must be replaced to prevent the possibility of the panel shattering. Contact your local Service Force Centre who will be pleased to advise further. It is not possible to reverse the oven door.
