Before any maintenance or
cleaning can be carried out,
you must DISCONNECT the ap-
pliance from the electricity
supply.
This appliance cannot be
cleaned with steam or with a
steam cleaning machine.

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 us-

ing 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 clean-
ing product such as Hob Brite or Bar
Keepers Friend is used.

Pan supports

The pan supports are dishwasher

proof. If washing them by hand, take
care when drying them as the enamel-
ling process occasionally leaves rough
edges. If necessary, remove stubborn
stains using a paste cleaner.

Maintenance and cleaning

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" with a
metal electrode inside. Keep these com-
ponents well clean, to avoid difficult
lighting, and check that the burner
crown holes are not obstructed.
