MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING

Before any maintenance or cleaning can be carried out, you must DISCONNECT

the cooker from the electricity supply.

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 using 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 cleaning product such as Hob Brite or Bar Keepers Friend is used.

The Hotplates

Spills onto the actual plate should be removed using warm water and a soft brush, nylon or plastic scourer.

To keep the plates looking as new, hotplate conditioner can be purchased from most hardware stores, e.g. "4 Hob" by HomeCare Products (follow the manufacturer's instruction for use).

Alternatively, wipe the plates with a drop of olive oil on a kitchen towel to avoid rust. It is important to note that the plate will smoke a little and produce a slightly unpleasant odour when next used.

Drying

Important: After cleaning, dry the hotplates thoroughly by switching on to a low-medium setting for a few minutes.

Restoring

To maintain the appearance of your sealed hotplates apply a little salt-free vegetable oil or restorative agent (i.e. "Collo Electrol", or Minky Hotplate Cleaning Cloths) periodically.

To apply vegetable oil: first heat the hotplate on a medium setting for 30 seconds then turn off. Pour a very small amount of salt-free oil onto a dry cloth or

kitchen paper. Apply a thin coat of oil to the hotplate surface and wipe off any excess. Heat the hotplate on a medium setting for 1 minute.

To apply restorative agent: first heat the hotplate on a medium setting for 30 seconds then turn off. Apply a very thin coating of Collo Electrol (using the applicator). Heat the hotplate on a high setting for 2-3 minutes to cure. Some smoke will occur, this is normal and non-toxic. (NB: this product is a resorative

agent not a cleanser. It is available from hardware stores).

Stainless steel parts: the stainless steel spill rings may become straw coloured with use. Use a proprietary stainless steel cleaner to remove this straw discolouration. This also applies to the area around the hotplates on stainless steel hobs.
