Before any maintenance or cleaning can be carried out, you must DISCONNECT the hob
from the electricity supply.
The hob is best cleaned whilst it is still warm, as spillage can be removed more easily than
if it is left to cool.
The Hob Top
Regularly wipe over the hob top using a soft cloth well wrung out in warm water to which a
little washing up liquid has been added. Avoid the use of the following:
- household detergent and bleaches;
- impregnated pads unsuitable for non-stick saucepans;
- steel wool pads;
- bath/sink stain removers.
Should the hob top become heavily soiled, the following products are recommended:
- For stainless steel hobs use a proprietary stainless steel cleaner.
- For other hob use Hob Brite or Bar Keepers Friend.
The Hotplates
Spills onto the actual plate should be removed using warm water and a soft brush, nylon or
plastic 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 manufacturer's
instruction 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.
Failure to clean and condition hotplates may lead to rust and corrosion forming on the
surface.
Stainless steel parts : the stainless steel spill rings may become straw coloured with use.
Use a proprietary stainless steel cleaner to remove this straw discolouration. This also
applies to the area around the hotplates on stainless steel hobs.
