Cleaning your cooker

Essential information

Before thorough cleaning isolate the electricity supply. Remember to switch on the electricity supply

before use.

Never use paint solvents, washing soda, caustic cleaners, biological powders, bleach, chlorine based bleach cleaners, coarse abrasives or salt. Don’t mix different cleaning products - they may react together with hazardous results. Recommended cleaning materials are shown in the table at the end of this section.

If you want to move your cooker for cleaning, see the section called ‘Moving your cooker’.

All parts of the cooker can be cleaned with hot soapy water - but take care that no surplus water seeps into the appliance.

For cleaning materials see the ‘Cleaning Table’ at the end of this section.

Grill

The grill pan and grid should be washed in hot soapy water. After grilling meats or any foods that soil, leave to soak for a few minutes in the sink immediately after use. Stubborn particles may be removed from the grid by using a nylon brush.

Hob

It’s very easy to clean the Hob with a recommended cleaner.

CAUTION — Do not use abrasive cleaners or pads, oven aerosols or pads or stain removers on the surface.

Daily care

First of all, be sure that all heat indicator lights are off and the cooking surface is cool. Apply a small dab, about the size of a 10p piece, of ceramic cooking cleaning cream in the centre of each area to be cleaned. Dampen a clean paper towel and work the cleaning cream on the cooking surface as if you were cleaning a window. As a final step, wipe the cooking surface with a clean, dry paper towel.

Cleaning for spills

For spills and boil-overs that occur while cooking, turn the unit off and wipe the area surrounding the hot zone with a clean paper towel. If a spill (other than a sugary substance) is on the hot zone, do not clean until the unit is completely cooled down and follow the instructions below (“Cleaning for

burned-on spills”). If you accidentally melt anything on the cooking or if you spill foods with a high sugar content (preserves, tomato sauce, etc.), REMOVE the spill IMMEDIATELY with a razor scraper, while the unit is still hot. IMPORTANT: Use an oven glove to protect your hand from potential burns. Scrape the major spill or melted material from the cooking zone and push into a cold area. Then, turn the unit “OFF” and allow to cool before cleaning further. After the cooking surface cools down and the heat indicator lights go off, use the daily care procedure as outlined above.

Cleaning for burned-on spills

Be sure that the heat indicator lights are off and the hob is cool. Remove excess burned-on substance with a single-edged razor scraper. Hold the scraper at approximately a 30° angle to the surface and scrape off the burned-on matter as you would scrape paint off of a window.

IMPORTANT: Take care when using a sharp scraper.

When you have removed as much as possible with the scraper clean using the daily care procedure as described above.

To remove metal rub-off

Sliding pans on the hob - especially aluminium or copper pans can leave marks on the surface. These marks often appear like scratches, but can be easily removed using the procedure described above for cleaning spills. If the rub-off marks are especially stubborn, use the cleaning cream together with the razor scraper, using the technique described above.

Glide out Grill

The grill pan and grid should be washed in hot soapy water. After grilling meats or any foods that soil, leave to soak for a few minutes in the sink immediately after use. Stubborn particles may be removed from the grid by using a nylon brush. Alternatively the grill pan can be washed in a dish washer.

To remove the grill pan support frame, pull the grill pan forward.
