Take care never to lean or reach over a hot electric

plate. Always point pan handles inward or over the

work surface next to the hob to avoid accidentally

knocking over a pan as you pass by.
Take care when frying food in hot oil or fat, as the

overheated splashes could easily ignite.
If the control knobs become difficult to turn, please

contact your local Electrolux Service Centre.

Before any maintenance or cleaning can be carried

out, you must 

DISCONNECT

 the hob from the

electricity supply.

The hob is best cleaned whilst it is still warm, as spillage

can be removed more easily than if it is left to cool.

The Hob Top

Regularly wipe over the hob top using a soft cloth well

wrung out in warm water to which a little washing up liquid

has been added. Avoid the use of the following:

- household detergent and bleaches;

- impregnated pads unsuitable for non-stick saucepans;

- steel wool pads;

- bath/sink stain removers.

Should the hob top become heavily soiled, the following

products are recommended:

- For stainless steal hobs use a proprietary stainless

steel cleaner.

- For other hobs use Hob Brite or Bar Keepers Friend.

The control knobs may be removed by carefully pulling

them upward for easier cleaning.

The Hotplates

Spills onto the actual plate should be removed using

warm water and a soft brush, nylon or plastic scourer. To

keep the plates looking as new, hotplate conditioner can

be purchased from most hardware stores, e.g. "4 Hob" by

HomeCare Products (follow the manufacturer's instruction

for use).
Alternatively, wipe the plates with a drop of olive oil on a

kitchen towel to avoid rust. It is important to note that the

plate will smoke a little and produce a slightly unpleasant

odour when next used.

Stainless steel parts

: the stainless steel spill rings may

become  straw  coloured  with  use.  Use  a  proprietary

stainless  steel  cleaner  to  remove  this  straw

discolouration. This also applies to the area around the

hotplates on stainless steel hobs.

Failure to clean and condition hotplates may lead

to rust and corrosion forming on the surface.
