Cleaning the hob top
Any residues that are left on the hob top surface from cleaning
agents will damage it. You should remove any residues with
warm soapy water.
Abrasive cleaners or sharp objects will damage the hob surface;
you should clean it using warm soapy water.
Although it is easier to clean some deposits whilst the
hob surface is still warm. Make sure that the hob surface,
pan supports and hob burners have all cooled sufficiently
before you attempt to touch them.
After each use
o
Remove the pan stands and wipe the appliance over with a soft,
damp cloth that has been put into warm soapy water. The cloth
should be wrung out after being taken out of the soapy water.
o
Dry the appliance by rubbing the surface with a soft, clean cloth.
o
We would recommend that an appropriate stainless steel cleaner
and polish is regularly used on the stainless steel surfaces of this
appliance.
Cleaning the hob burners
The hob burners should be cleaned once a week or more frequently if
they get soiled.
o
IMPORTANT: Make sure that the hob surface, pan stands and
hob burners have cooled before you attempt to touch them.

from the hob top.

Soak them for about ten minutes in hot water and a little
detergent.
