Cleaning your cooker
Essential information
Before thorough cleaning isolate the electricity
supply. Remember to switch on the electricity supply
before use.
Never use paint solvents, washing soda,
caustic cleaners, biological powders,
bleach, chlorine based bleach cleaners,
coarse abrasives or salt. Don’t mix different
cleaning products - they may react together
with hazardous results.
Recommended cleaning materials are shown
in the table at the end of this section.
If you want to move your cooker for cleaning, see the
section called ‘Moving your cooker’.
All parts of the cooker can be cleaned with hot soapy
water - but take care that no surplus water seeps
into the appliance.
For cleaning materials see the ‘Cleaning Table’ at the
end of this section.
Hotplate burners
Some models have a separate trim ring, which fits on
the burner head.
The burner heads and caps can be removed for
cleaning. Make sure they are absolutely dry before
replacing.
The LH hotplate
A cap, B head, C notch, D base, E electrode
When refitting the burner head, make sure that the
notch lines up with the electrode or hole in the base.
Check that the burner head is level and that the cap
is fitted centrally on the burner head.
The Wok burner
The Wok burner is a little more complicated but it
also can be taken apart for cleaning.

A inner burner cap, B outer burner cap
C inner burner head D outer burner head
E Wok burner base
When reassembling the Wok burner, turn over the
large base ring and find the ‘D’ shaped area.
burner base underside of burner head
Turn the head until the ‘D’ matches the one on the
burner base. Turn the head over and place it on the
burner base.
To fit the small inner burner, find the larger electrode
notch in the burner rim. Line this up with the white
ignition electrode and place the inner burner on the
large base ring.
