3. Use a plastic pad specially for non-stick
saucepans with Bar-Keepers Friend for removal
of more stubborn soilage.
TO REMOVE BURNT ON SOILAGE
We strongly recommend the use of a Ceramic Hob
Scraper (incorporating a single edge razor blade) to
remove spillage on the hob, in particular sugar
solutions, which if not removed can cause permanent
damage.
1. Make sure the ceramic glass is cool.
2. Use a ceramic hob scraper with care at an angle
of 30° to remove as much soilage as possible.
3. Use Bar-Keepers Friend or Hob Brite to finish off
as directed above.
TO REMOVE DISCOLOURATIONS OR
WHITE AND SILVER MARKS
These marks sometimes give the impression of being
in or underneath the hob glass. They can almost
always be removed provided they have not become
excessively burnt on. Follow the instructions above
under ‘To Remove More Stubborn Marks’.
If this is unsuccessful, make up a paste of one part
water to three parts Cream of Tarter and leave on the
discoloured areas overnight. The marks should be
easily removable the next day provided they have not
been excessively burnt on. The paste should be
thoroughly washed off afterwards.
HINTS AND TIPS
TO REDUCE HOB SOILAGE:
· Make sure the bottom of the saucepan and the
cooking area are clean and dry before cooking
begins.
· Ensure saucepans are large enough to
accommodate food to avoid boil overs.
· If possible, wipe up spills and splatters as they
occur, but take care to avoid steam burns.
· Avoid using a dishcloth or sponge to clean the
hob. These may leave a layer of soiled detergent
on the hob surface which will burn and discolour
the next time the hob is used.
· Avoid the use of:
· Household detergents and bleaches.
· Impregnated plastic or nylon pads that are not
described as suitable for non-stick saucepans.
· Brillo pads, Ajax pads, steel wool pads.
· Chemical oven cleaners, e.g. aerosols and oven
pads.
· Rust stain, bath and sink stain removers.
· Any of the above products may cause
damage to the hob.
· It is dangerous to mix different cleaning products.
The chemicals in them may react with each other
with hazardous results.
· SOILAGE FROM SUGAR SOLUTIONS MUST
BE REMOVED FROM THE HOB BEFORE THE
SYRUP HAS SET OTHERWISE DAMAGE TO
THE HOB SURFACE WILL OCCUR.
· Avoid placing plastic items, foil or dishes on the
hot surface as this will cause damage to the hob.
CLEANING THE GRILL AND OVEN
FURNITURE
All removable parts, except the grill pan handle can
be washed in the dishwasher.
The grill pan, grill pan grid and oven shelves may be
cleaned using a soap impregnated steel wool pad.
Soaking first in hot soapy water will make cleaning
easier.
CLEANING INSIDE THE OVEN AND
GRILL COMPARTMENTS
The sides, and back of the oven compartments are
coated with Stayclean enamel.
The Stayclean surfaces inside the ovens should not
be cleaned manually. See page 28 ‘Care of
Stayclean Surfaces’.
The vitreous enamel grill/top oven and main oven
base, can be cleaned using normal oven cleaners or
aerosol oven cleaners with care. Ensure that the
manufacturers instructions are followed and that all
parts are well rinsed afterwards.
