Cleaning your hob
Your unit has an enamelled finish, so you should use a non-abrasive cleaner, as an
abrasive one will scratch the surface and could erase the control markings.
Deposits of fat on the electric hotplates can be removed by turning on the hob for a
few seconds. The fat will dry out, and can be brushed off when the plate is cool.
If staining remains, special cleaners for electric plates can be purchased to return the
plate to it’s original colour e. g. Collo.
Electric hotplates are made of cast iron and though durable, will rust if moisture is left
on them regularly. Do not place wet lids from other pans onto an unused hotplate.
from time to time, apply a thin coat of special hob cleaner such as Collo (available
from CAPLE Service).
Remember to let your hob cool down before you clean it.
