Section 4. Maintenance
Before any maintenance or cleaning work is carried out,
DISCONNECT the appliance from the ELECTRICITY supply and
ensure that the appliance is completely cool.
4.1. Cleaning the Hob Surface
Clean spillages from the hob surface as soon as possible after use.
Always ensure that the surface has cooled down before cleaning.
Use a soft cloth or kitchen paper to clean the surface. If the spillage
has dried on the surface you may need to use a specialist vitro-
ceramic glass cleaner, available from all good supermarkets.
Do not use other abrasive cleaners and/or wire wool etc as this may
scratch the surface of the hob.
4.2. What to do if something goes wrong
There is no power to the appliance:
-
Check there is not a power cut
-
Check there is power to the electric socket/appliance
-
Has the auto time elapsed? – see section 3.2.4.
After cooking the letter ‘H’ is displayed:
-
This is the hot surface indicator – it will remain on until the
appropriate heat zone has completely cooled down.
After switching off, the appliance sounds like it is still running:
-
This is the cooling fan – it will remain on until the appliance
has completely cooled down.
The hob makes a ‘clicking’ noise during use:
-
This is quite normal – it is the sound of the induction coils
during operation.
