Hotpoint EG1000GX Cooktop User Manual


 
WARNING: NEVER USE STEAM CLEANERS.
Switch off the electricity supply and allow to cool before cleaning the cooker.
Clean the cooker regularly and wipe up spills soon after they occur to prevent
them from becoming burnt on. Never use biological washing powder, caustic
cleaners, harsh abrasives, scouring pads, steam cleaners, aerosol cleaners or
oven chemical cleaners of any kind.
Before moving your cooker ensure that it is cool and note that it is heavy so
you may require assistance. The cooker is fitted with rear wheels and will slide
in and out of position easily. Movement of your cooker is most easily achieved
as follows:
Open the grill/oven door sufficiently to allow a comfortable grip on the underside
front edge of the oven roof, avoiding contact with any grill or oven furniture
and then lift and slide at the same time.
When repositioning the cooker, ensure that it is level. Take care to ensure that
any floor covering is not damaged.
‘HEAT CLEAN’ LINERS
The oven linings are coated with a special enamel which has a continuous cleaning
action. The higher the oven temperature the more effective the action. In most
cases this cleaning operation will proceed during normal cooking.
However, if high temperatures are not used regularly it may be necessary to run
the oven empty at maximum setting for one hour. If desired, they can be wiped
over with a soapy cloth followed by a wipe with a clean, damp cloth.
CLEANING THE GRIDDLE PLATE
After cooking, leave the griddle plate on the hob and allow to cool before cleaning.
It can then be taken to the sink and washed using warm soapy water, gently
wipe the cooking surface with a dishcloth.
DO NOT use abrasive cleaning materials.
