CLEANING
12.210
ELECTRIC HOB
Ceramic glass hobs
• The ceramic hob top can be cleaned
using a clean, damp cloth or kitchen
paper. Do not use a used dishcloth
or sponge as they can leave a film of
detergent on the surface which can
lead to discoloration. Please ensure
that the elements are cooled fully to
avoid steam burns.
• You can use a specialist ceramic
cleaner to restore the surface, but
use sparingly to avoid coating the
hob top too thickly. Too much cream
cleaner will lead to discolouration.
Use a dry, clean cloth to polish the
surface.
• For stubborn marks, a specialist hob
scraper can be used.
• Do not use steam cleaners or high-
pressure cleaning equipment.
• Regular cleaning will prevent any
salts or minerals from accumulating
on your hob and discolouring the
glass.
• Wipe any spillage as soon as pos-
sible.
• Clean the hob top as regularly as
possible, this will prevent any build
up of grease which may be a fire
hazard.
Solid plate hobs
• Prime and Season - this helps main-
tain the finish of the elements.
• Use a damp, clean cloth to wipe the
solid plate, making sure that you
follow the circular grooves and avoid
damaging the red spots. Make sure
that you allow the hotplate to dry
before use by switching on the ele-
ments at a low heat.
• You can restore the hotplates by us-
ing a solid plate cleaner but take care
to avoid the red spots on elements.
• To prime: Switch on each element in
turn for a short while (with no pan on
it) at a medium - high setting. This
will harden and burn off the coating.
• To season: Heat the element for 30
seconds at a medium setting then
switch off. Use a minimum amount
of unsalted vegetable oil, on a dry
cloth or paper towel, and apply a thin
coat of oil to the element surface.
Wipe off the excess and heat the ele-
ment for one minute.
