Refitting the burner crowns and caps

The burner crown must be fitted correctly into the burner cup or damage will occur during operation.

•To do this ensure that the 2 ribs on either side of the spark plug hole are positioned into the 2 slots on the burner cup. (see diagram below)

•The burner cap is simply positioned over the top of the burner crown.

Ceramic hotplates

•Remove all spilt food with the razor blade scraper supplied while the hotplate is still warm – NOT HOT.

•If aluminium foil, plastic items or foods with a high sugar content melt onto glass, use the razor blade scraper to remove immediately before the hotplate has cooled, otherwise pitting of the surface may occur. High sugar content foods include jam, fruit, carrots, tomatoes and peas.

•When the ceramic hotplate has cooled, wipe clean with dishwashing detergent on a damp cloth.

NOTE: DO NOT use abrasive sponges or scourers, oven sprays or stain removers on ceramic hotplates. These may damage, scratch or stain the ceramic cooktop. Any pitting, staining or scratching WILL NOT be covered by warranty.

CLEANING THE ELECTRIC HOTPLATES

Solid hotplates

Coated “easy care” solid hotplates have a robust, corrosion resistant surface which is temperature resistant up to 600°C.

•Clean the hotplates after they have cooled by wiping with a damp cloth or sponge, use a small amount of detergent if necessary.

•Stubborn soiling can be removed by soaking the hotplate for a few minutes with warm water and a little detergent, followed by cleaning using a plastic scourer or soft brush.

•Any spills or marks that still remain can be burnt off by operating the hotplate on high without a pan for

2-3 minutes. When the hotplate has cooled clean it normally as above.

•After cleaning dry the hotplate by warming on a low heat for approximately 30 seconds and then oil the hotplate with a thin coating of cooking oil to prevent rust or corrosion.

•Some discolouration of the stainless trim ring is normal during use. A stainless steel cleaner may be used to clean the trim ring.
