Before any maintenance or cleaning can be carried out, you must
DISCONNECT the hob from the electricity supply.
The hob is best cleaned whilst it is still warm, as spillage can be
removed more easily than if it is left to cool.
The Hob Top
Regularly wipe over the hob top using a soft cloth well wrung out in
warm water to which a little wasing up liquid has been added. Avoid
the use of the following:
- household detergent and bleaches;
- impregnated pads unsuitable for non-stick saucepans;
- steel wool pads;
- bath/sink stain removers.
Should the hob top become heavily soiled, it is recommended that a
cleaning product such as Hob Brite or Bar Keepers Friend is used.
Pan Supports
The pan supports are dishwasher proof. If washing them by hand, take
care when drying them as the enamelling process occasionally leaves
rough edges. If necessary, remove stubborn stains using a paste
cleaner.
The Burners
The burner caps and crowns can be removed for cleaning.
Wash the burners taps and crowns using hot soapy water, and remove
marks with a mild paste cleaner. A well moistened soap impregnated
steel wool pad can be used with caution, if the marks are particularly
difficult to remove.
After cleaning, be sure to wipe dry with a soft cloth.
