dry cloth or kitchen towel. For stubborn stains, use a proprietary stainless

Side panels

Wipe with a cloth wrung out in warm soapy water only. DO NOT USE

 

 

 

 

 

ABRASIVES.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Ceramic

Use a ceramic hob cleaner-conditioner whenever cleaning is done. The

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

cleaner-conditioner forms a protective film on the hob and contains a

 

 

 

 

 

mild detergent which makes cleaning easir.

 

 

 

 

 

A cleaner-conditioner can be obtained either through a local Service

 

 

 

 

 

Centre or retailer, part number 6004.

 

 

 

 

 

To clean off stubborn stains the following can be used when the surface

 

 

 

 

 

has cooled:

 

 

 

 

 

1. Cif, non-scratch cream cleaner.

 

 

 

 

 

2. Heavy soil can be removed from the surface by carefully using a

 

 

 

 

 

glass scraper.

 

 

 

 

 

3. Hard water stains, grease spots and any discolouration having a

 

 

 

 

 

metal sheen can be removed with Solvol Autosol Super or any non

 

 

 

 

 

abrasive stainless steel cleaner.

 

 

 

 

 

After cleaning, always use the cleaner-conditioner and finish it off by

 

 

 

 

 

polishing with a clean, dry paper towel. Never use abrasive chemical

 

 

 

 

 

oven cleaners as they can damage the surface of the hob.

 

 

 

 

 

The visual effect of scratches which may occur in use can be minimised

 

 

 

 

 

by the use of the cleaner-conditioner. Such scratches cannot be

 

 

 

 

 

removed but do not affect the function of the hob in any way.
