Always clean spills immediately. If the hob is reused before cleaning,
spillage will be baked on and be very difficult to remove.
Always switch the cooker OFF at the cooker control panel.
To minimise cleaning:
Always take care and avoid spills.
Always use a Ceramic Hob Cleaner-Conditioner whenever cleaning is
done. The Cleaner-Conditioner forms a protective film on the
hob and contains a mild detergent which makes cleaning
easier. Hotpoint has a Cleaner-Conditioner which can be
obtained, either through a local Hotpoint Service Centre or
retailer, part no.6004.
To clean off stubborn stains, the following can be used when the
surface has cooled:
1. Cif, non-scratch cream cleaner.
2. Heavy soil can be removed from the surface by carefully
using a glass scraper.
3. Hard water stains, grease spots and any discolouration
having a metallic sheen can be removed with Solvol Autosol
Super or any non abrasive stainless steel cleaner.
After cleaning, always use the Cleaner-Conditioner and finish it off by
polishing with a clean, dry paper towel.
Never use abrasive or chemical oven cleaners as they can damage
the surface of the hob.
The visual effect of any scratches which may occur in use can be
minimised by the use of Cleaner-Conditioner. Such scratches cannot
be removed but do not affect the function of the hob in any way.
The outside of the cooker should be cleaned regularly to keep it
looking like new.
Wipe over with a soft cloth wrung out in warm water and dry with a
soft clean cloth.
You can use mild non abrasive cleaners but always read the
manufacturer’s instructions first. Always test their suitability on a
small
area of the cooker not noticeable in normal use.
NOTE: DO NOT use scouring pads or abrasive cleaners as they may
scratch the surface.
Wear protective gloves when cleaning any part of your cooker.
