Oven Timer Operation  
The oven timer offers you the following features:  
1. Time of Day  
2. Automatic Cooking  
3. Minute Minder  
Automatic Cooking The Main Oven (only) can be controlled by the automatic timer.  
Never operate the grill or top oven when the main oven is set to cook  
automatically because the main oven cavity can become warm and this may  
cause bacterial growth in food.  
Hints on  
Automatic  
Cooking  
1. Select foods which will take the same time to cook and require  
approximately the same temperature.  
2. Set the oven timer so that the food has just finished or about to  
finish cooking on your return to the oven. This will ensure the  
food has not cooled down and does not require reheating  
before serving.  
3. Food should be as cold as possible when it goes into the oven,  
ideally straight from the refrigerator. Frozen meat and poultry  
should be thawed thoroughly before it is put in the oven.  
4. We advise that warm food should never be placed in the oven if  
there is to be a delay period. Stews prepared by frying the meat  
and vegetables should be cooked as soon as possible.  
5. We advise dishes containing left-over cooked poultry or meat,  
for example Shepherds Pie, should not be cooked automatically  
if there is to be a delay period.  
6. Stews and joints should be cooked by the long slow method, so  
that the delay period is kept to a minimum.  
7. On warm days, to prevent harmful bacterial growth in certain  
foods (ie poultry, joints, etc) the delayed start should be kept to  
a minimum.  
8. Wine or beer may ferment and cream may curdle during the  
delay period, so it is best to add these ingredients just before  
serving.  
9. Foods which discolour should be protected by coating in fat or  
tossing in water to which lemon juice has been added, prior to  
placing food in the oven.  
10. Dishes containing liquid should not be filled too full to prevent  
boiling over.  
11. Food should be well sealed (but not airtight) in a container to  
prevent the loss of liquid during cooking. Aluminium foil gives a  
good seal.  
12. Ensure food is cooked thoroughly before serving.  
Timer  
1. Make sure all oven controls are turned Off.  
Operation  
2. Check that the electricity supply to the oven is turned On.  
3. Check that the oven clock is at the right time of day.

Rear left twin circuit plate  
This is a dual purpose plate with two elements. The settings on the control knob will show  
1 - 4 when the control is turned clockwise to indicate that the whole hotplate is turned on  
and can be used for larger pans, 4 is the highest setting. With the control knob turned anti-  
clockwise the settings on the control knob will show 1 - 4 to indicate that only the inner part  
of the hotplate is switched on.This is an energy saving feature and is useful for cooking with  
smaller pans or for slow simmering.The control will be OFF when the control knob is turned  
to the O position.  
Front left – Front right – Rear right –plates  
When the control is turned from the 0 position, the settings on the control knob will show  
1 - 6.  
6 is the highest setting, for fast cooking. To reduce the heat to cook more slowly or simmer,  
turn the knob to a lower setting which will vary according to size and type of saucepan, the  
amount and type of food, and whether or not a lid is fitted. Pans can be placed on the  
unheated areas of the panel when cooking is finished and before serving food.  
It is inadvisable at any time to leave a heating element switched on without a pan in  
position as this wastes energy, and could make soil or rub-off from aluminium pans more  
difficult to remove. To protect elements against overheating, safety cut-outs have been  
incorporated with each element. After several minutes with the control at setting 6 (setting  
4 on twin circuit plate) the safety cut-out switches the element Off and On continuously,  
thus preventing any adverse effects that may be caused by an excessive build-up of heat in  
the cooking area.  
Setting 1 provides very low inputs of 3% to 10% for low simmering. (Excluding the twin  
circuit plate). The control will be Off when the control knob is turned to the O position.  
If hob should become cracked, never use the cooker until the hob has been repaired.

Ceramic Hob General Information  
IMPORTANT  
–
As with any cooking appliance there could be  
some fire risk attached to the heating of oil, particularly for deep  
fat frying, cooking utensils containing oil must not be left  
unattended (e.g. to answer the telephone) on or in close  
proximity to the cooking areas.  
In the unfortunate event of a chip pan fire:  
1. Switch Off the electricity supply.  
2. Smother flames with a fire blanket or damp cloth.  
3. LEAVE THE PAN TO COOL FOR AT LEAST 60 MINUTES BEFORE MOVING  
IT. Injuries are often caused by picking up a hot pan and rushing  
outside with it.  
Safety  
requirements for  
deep fat frying  
1. Use  
a
deep pan, large enough to completely cover the  
appropriate heating area.  
2. Never fill the pan more than one-third full or fat or oil.  
3. Never leave oil or fat unattended during the heating or cooking  
period.  
4. Do not try to fry too much food at a time, especially frozen food.  
This only lowers the temperature of the oil or fat too much,  
resulting in greasy food.  
5. Always dry food thoroughly before frying, and lower it slowly  
into the hot oil or fat. Frozen foods, in particular, will cause  
frothing and spitting, if added too quickly.  
6. Never heat fat, or fry, with a lid on the pan.  
7. Keep the outside of the pan clean and free from streaks of oil or  
fat.

Choosing Your Utensils  
Below are some guidelines to help you make the right choice of  
utensils.  
Choosing your  
utensils  
To obtain  
a
satisfactory performance from  
a
ceramic hob and to  
avoid unnecessary damage, we recommend the use of good  
quality utensils with smooth flat bases.  
1. Purchasing a new pan will not necessarily mean it will have a  
flat base, always check before buying. See diagram below.  
Remember  
Do Use  
2. Using the correct pans and utensils will result in maximum  
contact with the hob and maximum efficiency as with any type  
of electric hob.  
Do use good quality smooth flat based utensils.  
Do use a utensil which has approximately the same base area as  
the heating area zone being used.  
Do use utensils which have more than sufficient capacity for the  
amount of food being cooked to prevent boil over or  
spillage.  
Do use utensils with good fitting lids.  
Do use a low dome pressure cooker for best results.

WARNING: Extreme caution should be used when cleaning the  
hot hob.  
Important  
1. Always clean up any spillage immediately with a clean cloth or a  
paper towel to avoid unnecessary damage to the hob.  
Extreme care should be taken to avoid steam burns and hot  
surfaces when cleaning spillage from the hob.  
2. When cooking food which contains sugar (most food) or syrup, use a  
utensil which is large enough to prevent boil over or spillage. Sugar  
spillage will permanently damage the hob and therefore should be  
cleaned off with care immediately. Taking care remove the hot spillage  
with a razor-blade scraper. This will avoid any damage.  
NEVER LET IT COOL BEFORE REMOVING.  
3. Always ensure that the base of the utensil is dry before placing  
on the ceramic hob.  
21

Choosing Your Utensils  
Do not use utensils with rough bases.  
Do Not  
Do not use lightweight utensils with thin, distorted or uneven bases.  
Do not use lightweight enamelled steel utensils.  
Do not use cast iron utensils.  
Do not use utensils with recessed, scrolled or ridged bases.  
Do not use a utensil which has a base concavity greater than 1mm as this  
will reduce the performance of the hob.  
Do not use a utensil with a convex base.  
Do not use glass ceramic utensils.  
Do not use use lightweight saucepans with plain thin copper bases on  
ceramic or halogen hotplates.  
Note: All copper pans are excellent conductors of heat, and are hard  
wearing and strong, but need quite a lot of care. They can be very heavy and  
do not usually have completely flat bases. The interiors are usually lined with  
a different material such as tin.  
A stainless steel pan with a sandwich base of aluminium and stainless steel  
is an excellent conductor of heat and is suitable for use on ceramic and halo-  
gen hobs, providing they are used in accordance with the saucepans manu-  
facturers’ recommendations.  
Stainless steel pans with a sandwich base of aluminium and copper are  
excellent conductors of heat. If using stainless steel saucepans with  
aluminium and copper sandwich bases on ceramic and halogen hobs,the use  
of these pans must be in accordance with the saucepan manufacturers’  
recommendations. Extra care should be taken to ensure the base of the pan  
and the hob is cleaned, and the hob conditioned, after each and every  
use, when using this type of saucepan.  
If these recommendations are not followed, the result will be a build up of  
small copper deposits on the surface of your hob which, if not cleaned after  
each use, will result in permanent marking of your hob.  
Always lift the pan from the hob, do not drag or slide across the hob surface  
as damage may occur.

Grill Pan and Handle  
Grill pan handle  
The grill pan handle is detachable from the pan, to facilitate  
cleaning and storage.  
The handle can be either detachable from or fixed to the pan.  
For a fixed handle remove the screw and washers from the grill pan  
bracket, tilt the handle over the recess adjacent to the bracket (A), slide it  
towards the centre of the pan (B) and let the handle locate over the  
bracket (C). Replace screw and washers and ensure that they are fully  
tightened up. For a detachable handle remove screw and washers from  
the grill pan and keep safe.  
Please note that if a fixed handle is required, the grill pan cannot  
be kept in the Fan Oven with the door closed but may be stored on  
the floor of the Top Oven when the appliance is not in use.  
Warning: Ensure when using grill pan handle in the detachable  
manner it is centralised and secure.

SolarPlus Grill  
CAUTION: ACCESSIBLE PARTS MAY BECOME HOT WHEN  
GRILL IS IN USE. CHILDREN SHOULD BE KEPT AWAY.  
Your cooker is not fitted with a conventional type of grill. Creda  
have developed a Solarplus high speed grill which is designed  
to reduce your grilling times. It is quicker because it takes less  
time to warm up from cold. Conventional grills require 5 minutes  
preheat before food is placed beneath them, but for normal grilling  
the Solarplus grill can be used directly from cold without any pre-heat.  
However, when toasting, optimum performance is achieved by preheating  
the grill for about 1 minute.  
You will notice that the grill elements are protected by a wire mesh.  
This stops you from touching live parts, so under no circumstances  
should pointed objects be inserted into the mesh. During use the  
mesh may become soiled. Do not attempt to clean it while the grill  
is still on. Turn the cooker off at the control unit and wait until it has  
cooled down before cleaning.  
Care must be taken to ensure the grill mesh is not distorted – do not  
store the grill pan handle on the grill pan grid when the rod shelf is  
in the top runner position.  
There are two halves to the grill, one on the left and one on the right.  
You can choose to have both sides on or just the left side on.  
Turning the control knob clockwise will switch both sides on.  
Turning it anti-clockwise, will only switch the left side on. The numbers  
indicate the heat setting, 4 is the hottest 1 the coolest.  
Note: You will notice that the grill elements are protected by a wire  
mesh. This stops you from touching the live parts.  
DO NOT under any circumstances insert objects into the grill mesh as  
this could damage the elements wire, break the glass tubes or if the  
grill is on, cause electric shock.  
IMPORTANT  
GRILLING SHOULD NEVER BE UNDERTAKEN WITH THE  
GRILL/TOP OVEN DOOR CLOSED. This will cause overheating.  
The grill will not operate unless the top oven control is in the Off  
position.  
Grilling procedure:  
1. Open the grill/top oven door fully.  
2. Ensure that the Easy Glide™ Shelf is located in the correct position  
(see ‘Guide to Grilling’).  
3. Preheat the grill, if necessary, with the Easy Glide™ Shelf pulled out  
(see Fig 1).  
4. Locate the grill pan in the Easy Glide™ Shelf (see Fig 2) and push back  
under the element.  
Fig 1  
5. The grill pan should be withdrawn,always using the grill pan handle, to  
the stop position to turn or remove cooked food. (There is no need to  
remove the grill pan from the Easy Glide™ Shelf).  
6. NEVER line the grill pan with aluminium foil as this may cause over  
heating of fat in the grill pan.  
NOTE: To stop fat splashing onto the grill element mesh, it is important to  
use the anti-splash tray. Always clean the grill pan anti-splash tray and food  
grid after each use.

Top Oven Cookery Notes  
The top oven should be used to cook small quantities of food.The oven is  
designed so that the grill element operates at a reduced heat output, this  
is combined with a heating element situated underneath the floor of the  
oven.  
To ensure even cooking of the food it is important that cooking utensils  
are positioned correctly on the oven shelf so that the element is directly  
above.  
There are two cooking positions, the shelf placed on runner 1 or 2 (from  
the base), do not use shelves upside down.  
Food/utensils must not be placed directly on the oven floor.  
There should always be at least 25mm (1in) between the top of the food  
and the grill element.  
Warning: Items stored in top oven will get hot when main oven is in use.  
Easy Glide™ Shelf  
Important:  
The Easy Glide™ Shelf, in conjunction with the grill pan supplied can be  
used for cooking in the oven(s), ie. meat, poultry etc. also for roasting  
vegetables. Place the Easy Glide™ Shelf in the oven on the same runner  
position as stated in the meat cooking charts.  
Always remove the grill pan handle from the grill pan when the pan is  
being used for oven cooking.  
Always use oven gloves when basting, turning or removing food from the  
oven, as the Easy Glide™ Shelf and the grill pan will be hot.  
Never remove the Easy Glide™ Shelf from the oven with the grill pan and  
food still in position.  
To heat the oven, turn the control knob clockwise.The top oven pilot light  
will come on and remain on until the oven reaches the required tempera-  
ture.The pilot light will automatically go on and off during cooking as the  
thermostat maintains the correct temperature.  
Operation  
Small joints of meat up to 1.5kg (3 lbs), or poultry, up to 3.6kg (8 lbs) (60cm  
cookers) in weight can be roasted in a small meat pan in the top oven.  
Larger joints of meat/poultry weighing more than 3.6kg (8 lbs) (60cm  
cookers) should be roasted in the main oven.  
Cooking meat/  
poultry  
Do not use the main oven meat pan as a meat pan in the top oven as  
air circulation will be seriously restricted.  
Place the plates/dishes on the shelf, positioned on runner 1, turn top oven  
control to 100°C for 10-15 minutes. Never use grill control.

Main Oven (Pre-Heat)  
Fan ovens provide even distribution of heat, allowing food to be cooked  
anywhere in the oven at the same temperature, ideal for batch baking.  
Fan Oven mode  
Pre-heating is not necessary in the fan oven mode for most foods because  
the oven element is situated around the fan blade which in turn circulates  
the hot air evenly around the oven quickly.  
Side Heat mode  
This is an oven mode long favoured for traditional British cooking. The  
heating elements at the sides create different temperature zones, with the  
hottest at the top and the coolest at the bottom. This allows you to cook  
at different temperatures on different shelves.  
The unique design of the Creda Smartcook™ oven permits an initial boost  
that reduces the usual pre-heat time of approximately 15 - 20 minutes in  
a non-fan oven, to approximately 8 - 9 minutes (based on 180˚C).  
During the initial boost, both the side and rear elements are on as well as  
the fan. When the oven reaches temperature in this mode, the fan will  
remain on for a further 4 minutes after opening the door and will then  
switch off automatically.

and will remain on until the oven reaches the required  
temperature. The pilot light will then automatically go off and on  
during cooking as the oven thermostat maintains the correct  
temperature.  
It should be noted that at the end of the cooking period their may be a  
momentary puff of steam when the oven door is opened. This will  
disperse in a few seconds and is a perfectly normal characteristic of an  
oven with a good door seal.  
Since a circulaire fan oven heats up more quickly,and generally cooks food  
at a lower temperature than a conventional oven, pre-heating is often  
unnecessary. However, foods such as bread, scones,Yorkshire pudding, do  
benefit from being placed in a pre-heated oven.  
The ‘oven temperature charts’ are a guide only, giving approximate  
cooking temperatures and times.To suit personal taste and requirements,  
it may be necessary to increase or decrease temperatures by 10°C.  
Unless otherwise indicated in the charts food should be placed in a cold  
oven, i.e. without pre-heating. If food is placed in an already hot oven, the  
suggested cooking time should be reduced, depending on the type and  
quantity of food being cooked.  
28

Main Oven (Fan Oven)  
Since the distribution of heat in the circulaire fan oven is very even, most  
foods will cook satisfactorily on any shelf position, but the shelves should  
be evenly spaced.  
Oven positions  
The top oven rod shelf can be used in the main oven when cooking large  
quantities of food. Additional shelves can be purchased through your  
oven supplier or Creda Spares.  
Food or utensils should Never be placed directly an the floor of the  
oven for cooking.  
Never use more than 3 shelves in the oven as air circulation will be  
seriously restricted. To ensure oven circulation do not use meat pans larg-  
er than 390 x 300mm (15”x12”) and baking trays no larger than 330 x  
255mm (13”x 10”), these should be positioned centrally on the oven shelf.  
Food should not be placed directly on the floor of the oven. To avoid  
unnecessary cleaning, rod shelves which are not in use, should be  
removed from the oven.  
When all three shelves are used to cook large quantities of food for home  
freezing or parties, it may be necessary to increase the cooking times given in  
the temperature charts by a few minutes, to allow for the loss of heat due to  
extra time taken to load the oven, and the larger mass of food. Baking trays  
should have an equal gap at either side of the oven.  
Temperature  
and time  
Frozen meat  
and poultry  
Joints of meat and whole birds should be defrosted slowly, preferably in a  
domestic refrigerator (allowing 5-6 hours per 450g (1 lb), or at room

Main Oven (Convection Oven) - Side heat  
Wipe the joint, dry well with a clean cloth, kitchen tissue etc. and weigh it.  
Meat which has been stored in a refrigerator, should be allowed to come  
to room temperature for approximately 30 minutes before cooking,  
similarly, meat stored in a freezer must be completely thawed beforehand.  
Beef, lamb and mutton may be lightly floured, but pork should have the  
rind scored, brushed over lightly with olive oil and sprinkled with salt - this  
gives a crisp crackling.  
To prepare meat for  
roasting in your  
electric oven  
Place joint in the meat pan. Additional fat should not be used, except for  
veal, very lean meat and poultry which can either be ‘larded’ with fat  
bacon, or brushed over very sparingly with melted fat/cooking oil. When  
potatoes are to be roasted around the joint, they only need to be coated  
in melted fat/cooking oil, it is not necessary to baste when roasting in an  
electric oven. Liquid/stock should not be added to the roasting tray.  
For optimum cooking performance, there must be clearance between the  
meat pan and the oven sides.  
The secret of succulent, tender meat, is not to roast it too quickly at too  
high a temperature. Best results are obtained when roasting is carried out  
at a low temperature. When a lower temperature is used, the joint loses  
less weight, is more tender (too high a temperature causes meat to be  
tough and dry), and the splashing of fat onto the oven interior is reduced  
to a minimum. When a complete meal is being cooked in the oven,  
cooking time may need to be increased and temperature may need to be  
raised for approximately the last 30 minutes of the cooking period (for  
instance when cooking Yorkshire Pudding, to serve with roast beef).

The most accurate method of testing the readiness of joints of meat or whole poultry is to insert  
a meat thermometer into the thickest part of a joint, or the thickest part of poultry thighs,  
during the cooking period. The meat thermometer will indicate when the required internal  
temp has been reached.

Note: When using two shelf positions at the same time on SIDE HEAT (eg. to bake two apple  
pies or a full oven of bread) the items should be interchanged half way through the cooking  
period. When baking two trays of scones or small cakes, the lower tray may require a few  
minutes longer and to be moved up to the higher position.

Using the Main Oven for other Functions  
“SLOW” setting (FAN OVEN only)  
90  
This is used for slow cooking, keeping food warm and warming plates for short  
periods. Extra care should be taken when warming bone china, as it may be  
damaged in a hot oven.  
DO NOT place food or plates directly on the oven floor as this could damage both the  
oven lining and the plates which are being warmed.  
Advantages of “SLOW” cooking are:  
The oven stays cleaner because there is less splashing.  
Timing of food is not as critical, so there is less fear of overcooking.  
Inexpensive joints of meat are tenderised.  
Fully loading the oven can be economical.  
Cooking times can be extended in some cases by up to 2 hours.  
Operation:  
1. Place the prepared food in the main oven and ensure the door is fully closed.  
2. Turn the Main Oven Selector clockwise to FAN OVEN position.  
3. Select  
(Slow Cooking Temperature) by turning Main Oven Temperature  
90  
Control clockwise ensuring the oven door is fully closed.  
Storage and re-heating of food:  
1. If food is to be frozen or not used immediately, place it in a clean container  
and cool as soon as possible.  
2. Always thaw frozen food completely in the refrigerator before re-heating.  
3. Always reheat food thoroughly and ensure it is piping hot before serving.  
4. Only re-heat food once.  
Points to consider when preparing food for “SLOW” cooking:  
1. Make sure that the dishes to be used will fit into the oven, ensuring enough room for air  
to circulate.  
2. All dishes cooked on the ‘Slow’ setting will require a minimum of 6 hours, however, if  
they are cooked for 1-2 hours longer then deterioration in their appearance, may be  
noticed.  
3. Never cook joints of meat over 2.7kg (6 lb) or poultry over 2kg (4lb 8oz). We do not  
recommend that joints of meat or poultry are stuffed before cooking on the ‘Slow’  
setting.  
4. To seal in the meat juices, always cook meat or poultry at 170˚C for 30 minutes before  
wrapping in foil and placing on a rack over a tin (to allow good air circulation) before  
turning the control to the ‘Slow’ setting and cooking immediately.  
5. Always ensure that joints of pork and poultry are thoroughly cooked by checking with a  
meat thermometer before serving.  
6. Always thaw frozen foods completely before cooking. We do not recommend placing  
frozen food in the oven to cook.  
7. Always bring soups, liquids and casseroles to the boil before placing in the oven.  
8. Ensure that casserole dishes have a good seal (not airtight) and cover the top with foil to  
prevent loss of moisture.  
9. Ensure that fruit and vegetables are cut into even sized small pieces to cook properly.  
10. Always adjust seasoning before serving.  
11. If using dried kidney beans it is important the beans are soaked and then boiled for a  
minimum of 10 minutes before using in any dish, to destroy any toxins.  
12. When cooking fish or egg dishes it may be necessary to check during cooking to avoid  
overcooking.

Care and Cleaning  
TURN OFF THE MAIN SWITCH AND ENSURE THE COOKER IS COLD  
BEFORE CLEANING.  
BEFORE SWITCHING ON AGAIN, ENSURE THAT ALL CONTROLS ARE  
IN THE OFF POSITION.  
NEVER USE BIOLOGICAL WASHING POWDER, HARSH ABRASIVES,  
SCOURING PADS, AEROSOL CLEANERS OR OVEN CHEMICAL  
CLEANERS OF ANY KIND, UNLESS SPECIFIED BELOW.  
Cleaning materials to avoid:  
1. Plastic or nylon pads  
2. Household abrasive powders and scourers. These may scratch the surface.  
3. Oven chemical cleaners, aerosols and oven pads.  
Caustic cleaners such as these will etch the surface and attack the metal frame.  
4. Bath and sink cleaners may mark the surface.  
ALWAYS SWITCH OFF AT THE MAINS SWITCH BEFORE CLEANING.  
1. ‘CREDACLEAN’ Oven Liners (TOP OVEN)  
Refer to the instructions below for cleaning the ‘Credaclean’ panels.  
How ‘CREDACLEAN’ works:  
The surfaces of the ‘Credaclean’ oven liners are treated on the mottled face with a special vitre-  
ous enamel which absorbs cooking soils. At temperatures of 220˚C (425˚F) or above, the special  
surface enables these soils to be slowly destroyed. The higher the temperature the more effec-  
tive it is. In most cases, normal cooking operations at this temperature will permit this cleaning  
operation to proceed during normal cooking. However, if higher cooking temperatures are not  
used regularly it may be necessary in order to prevent heavy soiling, to run the oven without a  
meat pan at maximum setting for a couple of hours.  
It should not normally be necessary to clean the ‘Credaclean’ panels in water. If the user feels it  
is desirable to do so, wash them in warm soapy water, followed with a rinse of clean water.  
DO NOT use enzyme/biological washing powder, harsh abrasives or oven chemical  
cleaners of any kind.  
2. OVEN LINERS (MAIN OVEN)  
Refer to the instructions below for cleaning the liners.  
These can be cleaned by wiping them over with a clean soapy cloth, followed by a wipe with a  
clean damp cloth or in a dishwasher (see below for removal/refitting instructions). For more  
stubborn stains on the side liners, use a well soaped, fine steel wool soap pad.  
Removal/Refitting Instructions (Oven Liners):  
(a) To remove the liners: Grip at the bottom of the liner and lift upwards, remove from oven for  
cleaning.  
(b) Refitting the liners: Place the liner over the four shoulder screws and slide downwards,  
ensuring all four corners are engaged correctly and the hand grip is positioned towards the  
bottom of the oven.

Care and Cleaning  
Ceramic hotplates  
Clean your Creda Ceramic hob top regularly and avoid repeated burning of encrusted  
contamination.  
Your choice of cleaner will depend on the degree of soiling involved (see below).  
G minor soiling, where the contamination has not burnt hard, can be wiped off with a clean  
wet cloth  
G major soiling and strongly-adhering burnt encrustation can be quickly and easily removed  
with a razor-blade scraper  
G hard water stains, grease spots and discolouration having a metallic sheen can be  
removed with ‘Easy Do Cleaner Powder’  
G always condition hob after cleaning by using ‘Easy Do Conditioner’ or ‘Hob Brite’. Apply a  
small amount of conditioner with a clean damp cloth or paper towel. Rub vigorously.  
Remove excess with a clean damp cloth or paper towel. Polish with a clean cloth or paper  
towel before the conditioner dries.  
Detergent residues must always be completely removed with a clean wet cloth, (even if the  
instructions for use suggest otherwise), as they can have an etching effect when reheated. Then  
wipe dry.  
To maintain hob in good condition, we would recommend regular use of the ‘Easy Do Powder  
Cleanser’.  
Sprinkle Powder Cleanser on a clean damp cloth or paper towel and rub vigorously for 3 to 4  
minutes. Remove all residue with a clean damp cloth or paper towel. Then use conditioner to  
protect the hob.  
For more stubborn marks, mix a small amount of the powder cleanser with‘Cif Lemon Juice’(from  
a bottle) and carefully spread over the affected area. Cover with a damp paper towel and leave for  
a minimum of 15 minutes. Rub vigorously. Remove excess with a clean damp cloth or paper towel  
before the conditioner dries. Polish with a clean cloth or paper towel.  
Easy Do products are available from many electrical retailers, Creda Parts Department and Creda  
Parts Distributors. Homecare ‘Hob Brite’ is available from leading Supermarkets.

Care and Cleaning  
Decorative trims  
It is advisable to clean the decorative trims regularly to prevent any build up of soiling which may  
detract from the appearance of the cooker.The recommended method of cleaning is to wipe over the  
trims with a soft cloth wrung out in warm water or mild non-abrasive cleaner. (If in doubt try the  
cleaner on a small area of trim which is not noticeable in normal use).Then, after wiping with a cloth  
wrung out in clear water, dry with a soft clean cloth.  
Never use scouring pads or abrasive cleaners/powders which may scratch the surface.  
Take care during cleaning not to damage or distort the door seals. Do not lift the door seal from the  
oven chassis, if necessary remove the seal by carefully unhooking the corner clips.  
Take care that the rating label edges are not lifted during cleaning, and furthermore that the  
lettering is not blurred or removed.  
Control Panel:  
Wipe with a damp cloth and polish with a dry cloth.  
Oven Doors:  
Wipe over the doors decorative outer panel; with a cloth wrung out in hot soapy water, then after  
wiping with a cloth wrung out in clear water, dry with a soft clean cloth. Do not use scouring pads  
or abrasive powder which may scratch the surface. Ensure that the glass panel is not  
subjected to any sharp mechanical blows.
