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
wasing 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.
The control knobs may be removed by carefully
pulling them upward for easier cleaning.
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.
