CLEANING THE COOKER
Cleaning The Sealed Plate Hob
The enamelled parts of the hob should be cleaned
with a soft cloth soaked in warm detergent water, for
more stubborn marks, a light scouring cream may be
used.
Spills onto the actual plate should be removed using
warm water and a soft brush, plastic or nylon
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 manufactures instructions 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.
Glass Panel
This should be cleaned with a soft cloth soaked in
warm detergent water. Do not use abrasive scourers
or steel wool.
Oven Shelves
To clean the chrome parts of the oven, soak in warm
detergent water and remove stubborn marks with a
well wetted soap impregnated pad. Rinse well and
dry with a soft cloth.
Oven Cavity
The enamelled oven cavity is best cleaned whilst the
oven is still warm. It is preferable/advisable to wipe
the oven over with a soft cloth soaked in warm
detergent water after each use. However, from time
to time it will be necessary to do a more thorough
cleaning, using a proprietary oven cleaner.
