surface
(fingerprints, marks,

hob off.

When the power to the electric hob
is switched off, there will be no ‘hot
surface’ indication but the cooking
zone may still be hot!
Take extreme care.
•
Heavy-duty scourers, some nylon
scourers and harsh/abrasive cleaning
agents may scratch the surface. Always
read the label to check if your cleaner
or scourer is suitable.
•
Never leave cleaning residue on the
electric hob: the surface may become
stained.
Spillovers on the power

1. Switch the power to the electric
hob off.

Make sure you wipe the power
regulating control area dry before
turning the electric hob back on.
