Unpacking Examine your hob for any damage, particularly the hob glass. Make sure
there are no chips or cracks.
If there is any damage to the hob or there is anything missing, please
contact your supplier for advice. If the hob glass is cracked the appliance
must not be connected to the supply, and no part of it may be used.

”). The surface around the hob must
be of a heat resistant material.
The work top and its support must be strong enough to carry the weight of
the hob plus full cooking pans.
The hob is a class X appliance, as such adjacent walls which project above
hob level must not be nearer to the hob than 150mm and should be
protected by heat resistant material. Any overhanging surface or cooker
hood should not be nearer than 650mm.
We do not recommend positioning the hob below wall cupboards as heat
and steam from cooking may cause damage to the cupboard and its
contents.

Care of Your Hob
In the interests of both safety and hygiene your Belling hob needs
to be kept clean. A build-up of grease or fat from cooking may
cause a fire hazard.
WARNING! For your own safety, always switch off your hob at
the mains supply before cleaning.
Ceramic Hob WARNING! If any crack should appear on the hob, isolate the
cooker from the mains supply. Do not use any part of the
cooker but contact your Belling Service Agent.
The ceramic hob is very hard wearing and with normal care should
remain in good condition. However, it is important that any spillage
is dealt with before the hob is used again, otherwise it will become
baked on.
Once the hob has cooled, remove any heavy spillage or soiling
with a metal spatula or scraper, the hob surface should then be
cleaned using a proprietary Ceramic Hob Cleaner and Conditioner
on a damp cloth to remove any marks. Wipe off the residue of the
cleaner with a soft damp cloth and polish the hob with a soft lint-
free cloth. It is important that the hob is cleaned regularly with
Ceramic Hob Cleaner & Conditioner as it provides a protective film
to keep the hob in good condition and assists in keeping the hob
clean.
Whilst it is recommended that normal cleaning is carried out when
the hob has cooled, if jam, fruit or anything with a high sugar
content is spilled on the hob, or plastic or aluminium is melted onto
the hob, clean it off immediately, as damage to the hob can result.
Switch off the hob and use a metal spatula, palette knife or scraper
to remove the spillage. TAKE CARE, as the spillage and the hob
may be very hot. When the hob has cooled, clean as usual with
Ceramic Hob Cleaner & Conditioner.
Do not use scouring powders or paste, wire wool scouring pads, or
oven cleaners on the hob as these can cause damage to the hob
surface.
