The Hob Top

The hob is best cleaned whilst it is still warm, as spillage

can be removed more easily than if it is left to cool.
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, it is

recommended that a cleaning product such as Hob Brite

or Bar Keepers Friend is used.

Maintenance and Cleaning

Cleaning the Oven

The Pan Support

The pan support is dishwasher proof. If washing it by

hand, take care when drying it as the enamelling process

occasionally leaves rough edges. If necessary, remove

stubborn stains using a paste cleaner.

The Burners

The burner caps and crowns can be removed for cleaning.
Wash the burners caps and crowns using hot soapy

water, and remove marks with a mild paste cleaner. A well

moistened soap impregnated steel wool pad can be used

with caution, if the marks are particularly difficult to

remove.
After cleaning, be sure to wipe dry with a soft cloth.

Before any maintenance or cleaning can be carried

out, you must DISCONNECT the cooker from the

electricity supply.

The oven should be kept clean at all times. A

build-up of fats or other foodstuffs could result in

a fire, especially in the grill pan.

Cleaning materials

Before using any cleaning materials on your oven, check

that they are suitable and that their use is recommended

by the manufacturer.

Cleaners that contain bleach should NOT be used as

they may dull the surface finishes. Harsh abrasives should

also be avoided.

External cleaning

Regularly wipe over the control panel, oven door and door

seal using a soft cloth well wrung out in warm water to

which a little washing up liquid has been added.

To prevent damaging or weakening the door glass

panels avoid the use of the following:

• Household detergent and bleaches
• Impregnated pads unsuitable for non-stick

saucepans

• Brillo/Ajax pads or steel wool pads
• Chemical oven pads or aerosols
• Rust removers
• Bath/Sink stain removers

Clean the outer and inner door glass using warm soapy

water. Should the inner door glass become heavily soiled

it is recommended that a cleaning product such as Hob

Brite, or Bar Keepers Friend is used.

DO NOT clean the oven door while the glass panels

are warm. If this precaution is not observed the

glass panel may shatter.

If the door glass panel becomes chipped or has

deep scratches, the glass will be weakened and

must be replaced to prevent the possibility of the

panel shattering. Contact your local Service Force

Centre who will be pleased to advise further.
