You can wash the removable parts in very hot soapy water. You may
use mild abrasives. Make sure that the electrode and the hole and slots
in the crown are not blocked with food or cleaning materials.
Clean the burner crowns by soaking them in
very hot soapy water. You can remove any
stubborn stains by scouring with a soap filled
pad such as 'Brillo'. If you look after the burner
crowns in this way they will stay reasonably
clean. However the surface will dull with time.
Aluminium based saucepans can leave shiny metal marks on the
pan supports. Clean the pan supports regularly to remove the marks
using a mild abrasive like 'Jif' with a soft scourer. For more stubborn
marks you can use a soap filled pad such as 'Brillo'. After cleaning the
cooker parts, dry them thoroughly before you put them back.
When replacing hotplate burner parts
1. Crown to body (Do not try to force the
crown on to the body). Make sure that the
hole in the crown is centrally over the
electrode. Check that the two longer
location pegs sit in the slots in the body.
When the crown is in the position let it fall
freely on to the body. Check that the
crown can be moved slightly from side to
side.
2. Cap to crown. Place cap centrally on the
top of crown (enamel side up). Move
sideways and front to back to check the
cap is properly fitted.
3. Check for ignition
If a burner will not light then you need to
check the crown and cap positions.
The grill and second oven
Clean the grill and oven frequently using hot soapy water.
After use you can soak the pan for a few minutes and then clean it
using mild abrasives or a soap filled pad such as 'Brillo'.
Clean the shelf using hot soapy water. Mild abrasives can be used if
necessary. The heat in the oven will change the colour of the solid plate
on the shelf. You must not remove the solid plate from the shelf. You
can soak the shelf for a few minutes in hot soapy water to make
cleaning easier.
