Care and cleaning
Do not use any polishes, caustic cleaners, abrasives, washing soda
or soap powder except those recommended in this booklet.
Please note: If we recommend you use hot
soapy water we mean hot water with washing
up liquid in it and not any other cleaning
product.
If you own a dishwasher please read the
operating instructions for the machine before
you wash any part of your appliance in it.
Clean your appliance regularly using a cloth that has been wrung out
in hot soapy water. Rinse and polish it dry using a soft cloth.
When you remove parts of your appliance for cleaning do not plunge
them into water whilst they are very hot as this may damage the finish of
the parts.
The hotplate
Clean the hotplate top using a mild abrasive such as 'Cif'. Take care not
to damage the spark electrodes. If the spark electrodes are damaged
the burners will not light.
You can remove the pan supports, burner caps and burner crowns
to clean them. Again take care not to damage the spark electrodes.
If any food spills do occur during cooking you can place the pan on
another burner to finish cooking. Then you can remove the dirty parts
and clean them before the spill 'burns on'.
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.
