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 wasing up liquid has been added. Avoid the use of the following:
-household detergent and bleaches;
-impregnated pads unsuitable for
-steel wool pads;
-bath/sink stain removers.
Should the hob top become heavily soiled, the following product s are recommended:
-for stainless steel hobs use a proprietary stainless steel cleaner;
-for other hobs use Hob Brite or Bar Keepers Friend.

To keep the pan supports in the correct position, | ||

they are mounted on metal pins located in the back |
| |
of the hob.After cleaning the hob, ensure the pan |
| |
supports are properly placed as shown in fig. 2. |
| |
The pan supports are dishwasher proof. If washing |
| |
them by hand, take care when drying them as the |

enamelling process occasionally leaves rough |
| |
edges. If necessary, remove stubborn stains using |
| |
a paste cleaner. |
