CLEANING
The appliance must be turned off at the mains before carrying out any maintenance. Make
sure the hob plates are not hot prior to any cleaning or maintenance. Any abrasive cleaners
(such as Cif) will scratch the surface and could erase the control panel markings. Stainless
steel can be effectively cleaned by simply using a dilute solution of water and washing up
liquid and drying to a shine with a clean cloth. Over time with use, the stainless steel surface
may discolour – this is normal and does not constitute a fault with this appliance. Proprietary
stainless steel cleaners are available.
HOTPLATE CARE
The finish of the cast iron hotplates is designed to be durable in use. The following tips should
be observed to get the best from your hob:
1. Do not use decorative covers as these can cause damage to the surface and lead to rust.
2. Use a special hotplate surface cleaner to protect and restore the surface of the hotplates.
3. Do not use soap and water on the hotplates. Wipe up spills and splashes immediately.
4. Never operate the hob without a pan, unless it is for a few seconds (as below).
5. Deposits of fat can be burned off by turning the hotplate on for a few seconds. The fat will
brush off when the appliance has cooled down.
