Care and Cleaning
Ceramic hob
To reduce the amount of cleaning always ensure that the hob and cooking utensils are clean and dry
before use. Regular use of cleaner conditioner is recommended for proper care and protection of the
hob surface. Apply conditioner before using the hob for the first time. It contains a mild cleaning agent,
so that subsequent applications may clean off soil and apply a protective film at the same time. For
stubborn stains or heavy soiling use any of the following materials, and finish off with conditioner.
1. Cif, non-scratch scouring cream.
2. Liquid Gumption Kitchen Cleanser.
3. Special Powder Cleanser.
Powder Cleanser – Mineral deposits that are present in hard water, and some foods, may cause
‘discolourations’ that appear in the form of grey or brown stains. The stains sometimes appear to be in
or under the glass surface. If there are some persistent stains after using any of the other
recommended cleaning materials, powder cleanser may be applied, following the manufacturers
instructions. Do not use abrasive cleaners or the powder cleanser on the painted metal framework.
Cleaner Conditioner – Regular use of the conditioner will make the surface easier to clean thus
ensuring that years of heavy abrasive cleaning do not progressively dull the surface.
Grill
Remove the grill pan and the wire grid food support, it is best to wash these items immediately after
use to prevent stains from being burnt on when used again. Wipe out the Grill compartment, use a fine
steel wool soap pad to remove stubborn stains from the grill runners and the floor of the compartment.
Wipe over the control panel with a damp cloth and polish with a dry cloth.
Control Panel
Do not use cream cleaners, oven cleaners or aerosols, scouring pads or abrasive powder for
cleaning the plastic knobs as damage will occur.
Decorative Trims
It is advisable to clean the decorative trims regularly to prevent any build up of soiling. 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.
Ovens
Remove the rod shelves and grill pan. Use a fine steel wool soap pad to remove stubborn stains from
the rod shelves, grill pan and the floor of the oven.
Clean the glass part of the oven door using a
sponge and a non-abrasive cleaning product, then dry thoroughly with a soft cloth. Do not use rough
abrasive material or sharp metal scrapers as these could scratch the surface and cause the glass to
crack.
Oven Shelf
Supports
The shelf supports are removable and dishwasher safe.
To remove hold the support at the front and pull away from the oven side, this can then be cleaned in
a sink or a dishwasher. When removed it allows access to the oven side, which can be cleaned with
warm soapy water.
To refit the support, insert the longer leg into the rear fixing hole and push in the front leg.
Oven Lamp
Replacement
Open the oven door and remove the rod shelves. Using a suitable cloth to protect the fingers grip the
light glass dome, unscrew anti-clockwise and lift. Reach into the aperture with fingers, and unscrew the
lamp anticlockwise. Fit replacement lamp (25W 300°C rated SES), refit dome.
WARNING: To avoid electric shocks - please ensure that the electricity supply to the appliance
is switched off and the appliance is fully cold, before removing the lamp lens.
