Provide your Rational with overall check and maintenance

First, check the oven connection to the power and gas supply as well as the condition of the related elements. Second, as the Rational combi oven is a sort of steam oven, it has water and drain connections. Therefore, check the condition and attachment of water and drainage lines.
Then, service your equipment. One of the tasks here are as follows:
  • Replace the air filter to ensure extra freshness for the dishes you will cook
  • Check cooking cabinet light and replace the halogen lamp if necessary
  • Check the door seal and replace it if necessary
  • Test all the cooking modes
At last, if you moved the appliance while mothballing or de-mothballing, check its levelling and adjust it if necessary.
Note, any maintenance task should be performed only by a qualified person. So, if you don’t have such a person on your board, turn to London Engineers Company. We provide the best Rational oven service in Great London, Berkshire, Hampshire, Surrey, and Windsor.

Undertake thorough cleaning

First, clean the cooking cabinet. If you stored the oven with closed doors, open them for a few hours to let fresh air in. Then, apply detergent and enable CleanJet®+care, a grand self-cleaning mode the appliance is equipped with. After the self-cleaning cycle ends, do not forget to rinse the cooking cabinet with water to remove detergent residues.
Second, descale the steam generator and humidifying nozzles. We recommend undertaking the procedure after such a long break. Even if your Rational does not show the "CalcCheck" on its display. To clarify, during the break, the steam generator and humidifying nozzles might accumulate some dust, which you will remove when descaling. Besides, if you forget to descale them when preparing your Rational for storage, this is high time to do it right now.

At last, clean the oven exterior and glass windows to restore the nice appearance of the appliance.
