You can remove the pan supports, burner caps and burner crowns to clean them. Again take care not to damage the spark electrodes.

Clean the burner crowns and pan supports by soaking them in very hot soapy water. Aluminium based saucepans can leave shiny metal marks on the pan supports. You can remove any stubborn stains by scouring with a soap impregnated steel wool pad. If you look after the burner crowns and pan supports in this way they will stay reasonably clean. However the surface will dull with time.

After cleaning the appliance 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 over the electrode. Check that the location pegs sit in the slots in the body. When the crown is in this 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.

CLEANING THE SHELVES, WIRE- WORK RUNNERS AND GRILL/OVEN FURNITURE

All removable parts, except the grill pan handle can be washed in the dishwasher.

The grill pan, grill pan grid, oven shelves and wirework runners may be cleaned using a soap impregnated steel wool pad. Soaking first in hot soapy water will make cleaning easier.

CLEANING THE GRILL

Do not clean the grill burner itself. Cleaning the grill may cause the holes in the burner to become blocked preventing it from operating correctly.
