Cleaning the ceramic hob
Use the scraper supplied to remove spillages
immediately, while the hob is still hot, especially
sugar and foods with a high sugar content (e.g.
jam), melted plastics and foil, all of which can
damage the hob if left.
IF
THE
HOB
IS
VERY
SOILED
:
1
Remove soilage using the razor blade scraper (see below).
2
Use the hob cleaner supplied when the hot-hob warning
lights have all gone out. Shake the bottle and apply a small
quantity of cleaner directly onto the hob. Rub clean using a
damp cloth or paper towels.
3
Use a damp cloth to remove all remaining traces of the
cleaner, which could otherwise burn on when the hob is
next used. Wipe the hob dry.
The razor blade scraper:
KEEP
THE
SCRAPER
AWAY
FROM
CHILDREN
. Use the
razor blade scraper carefully. The razor blade is
extremely sharp.
Use the scraper to remove spillages from the ceramic hob. You
will have to turn the razor blade round before using it for the first
time since it has been reversed for transport safety reasons. There
is a protective cover for the sharp razor blade when the scraper is
not being used.
1
Press down the button on the top of the scraper and push it
forwards as far as it will go (see illustration).
2
Remove the razor blade. Replace the blade with the sharp
edge outwards.
3
“Lock” the blade with the tabs on the scraper
(see illustration).
4
Press the button down hard and push it backwards as far as
it will go.
TO
USE
THE
SCRAPER
,
FOLLOW
THESE
INSTRUCTIONS
:
1
Expose the razor blade by pushing the button (on the top
of the scraper) forwards to “stop” (see illustration). You
can check the razor blade is locked into position by push-
ing the blade down onto a hard surface.
2
Make sure the razor blade is clean and not worn otherwise
it might damage the hob. New razor blades can be bought
from drugstores.
3
Angle the scraper at approx. 45° and scrap away the spill-
age. The razor blade can be pressed down hard onto the
hob without causing any damage.
4
Use kitchen roll paper to wipe clean the blade carefully.
5
When you have finished, press down the button and push it
backwards as far as it will go. Keep the scraper out of the
reach of children.
