EASY DECISION
CLEANING
NOTE: Cleaning and maintenance operations must only be carried out when the cooktop is cool.
The appliance should be turned off at the isolation switch before commencing any cleaning
process.
CLEANING THE COOKTOP
Any residues that are left on the cooktop surface from cleaning agents may damage it. You should remove
any residues with water and a little washing up.
Abrasive cleaners or sharp objects will damage the cooktop surface. The cooktop should be cleaned using
water and a little washing up liquid.
Although it is easier to clean some deposits whilst the cooktop surface is still warm, you should take extra
care not to burn yourself. It is recommended to only clean the cooktop when cold.
AFTER EACH USE
Wipe the appliance over with a damp cloth and a little washing up liquid.
Dry the appliance by rubbing the surface with a clean cloth.
If the cooktop is heavily soiled, it is recommended that a stainless steel cleaner be used, but only on
stainless steel appliances.
IMPORTANT: If a stainless steel cleaner is not used regularly, then it is possible for the surface of the
cooktop to change colour over a period of time.
For other cooktop surfaces, a mild, non abrasive cream cleaner may be used.
MAINTAINING THE SOLID PLATES
If something is spilt onto the plate itself, then it can be removed using a soft brush, plastic or nylon scourers
and warm water.
To keep the solid plates in good condition, you should put a little olive oil onto a kitchen towel and rub it
onto the surface of the plate. The next time the plate is used, it may produce a little smoke.
Alternatively you can use a hotplate cleaner; these products can normally be found at larger supermarkets
and hardware stores. The manufacturer’s instructions should be followed when using these products.
IMPORTANT: If the solid plates are not maintained regularly with olive oil or a hotplate cleaner, then they
may rust.
