Maintenance and Cleaning
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.
Pan Supports and Wok Stand
The pan supports and the Wok Stand are dishwasher
proof. If washing them by hand, take care when drying
them as the enamelling process occasionally leaves
rough edges. If necessay, remove stubborn stains using
a paste cleaner.
The Burners
The burner caps and crowns can be removed for cleaning.
Wash the burner 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.
Ignition electrode
The electric ignition is obtained through a ceramic
"electrode" and a metal electrode (Fig. 1 - letter C). Keep
these components very clean, to avoid lighting difficulties,
and check that the burner crown holes are not
obstructed.
Something Not Working?
If the hob is not working correctly, please carry out the following checks before contacting your local Service Force
Centre.
SYMPTOM
n There is no spark when lighting the gas
n The gas ring burns unevenly
SOLUTION
u Check that the unit is plugged in and the electrical
supply is switched on
u Check that the RCCB has not tripped (if fitted)
u Check the mains fuse has not blown
u Check the burner cap and crown have been
replaced correctly, e.g. after cleaning.
u Check the main jet is not blocked and the burner
crown is clear of food particles.
u Check the burner cap and crown have been
replaced correctly, e.g. after cleaning.
If after all these checks, your hob still does not operate
correctly, contact your local Service Force Centre (see
pages 10 and 11)
