HINTS AND TIPS
•
Lift, rather than slide saucepans on and off the
hob areas. This will reduce the risk of scratches
and metal marks from saucepans with aluminium
bases. Metal marks can be easily cleaned off
providing they are not allowed to burn on.
•
Follow any guidelines provided by the saucepan
manufacturer, particularly those relating to
recommended heat settings.
•
Avoid using thin, badly dented or distorted
saucepans. Those with uneven bases should not
be used.
•
Never leave the hotplates ON when not covered
with a saucepan.
•
Ensure that the hob and saucepans are clean
and dry before the start of cooking.
•
Follow the cleaning instructions very closely to
keep the hob looking like new.
•
If spillage occurs with sugar solutions, e.g.
jams and syrups, it must be wiped from the
hob before it sets and becomes hard
otherwise damage to the hob will occur.
HOT HOB INDICATOR
The ceramic hob is fitted with a hot hob indicator light
which illuminates when the hob is too hot to touch.
The light will go OFF when the hob has cooled.
