CARE AND CLEANING

BEFORE CLEANING ALWAYS ALLOW THE COOLING FAN TO COOL THE APPLIANCE DOWN BEFORE SWITCHING OFF AT THE ELECTRICITY SUPPLY.

CLEANING MATERIALS

Before using any cleaning materials on your cooker, check that they are suitable and that their use is recommended by the manufacturer.

Cleaners that contain bleach should NOT be used as they may dull the surface finishes. Harsh abrasives should also be avoided. Multi-surface anti bacterial products should not be used on the surrounding trims.

CLEANING THE SEALED HOTPLATES AND HOTPLATE TRIMS

In order to maintain the appearance of your cooker's sealed hotplates and trims you are advised to use the recommended cleaning agents daily. If you do not allow spillages to burn on they will be much easier to clean off.

THINGS TO NOTE

The red spot in the centre of the hotplates may be removed with some abrasive cleaning agents. This is not a fault and does not effect the performance of the hotplate.

FOR NORMAL SOILAGE

Wipe over the hotplates and trims using a clean damp cloth then switch to a low or medium setting for a few minutes to thoroughly dry.

FOR HEAVY SOILAGE

Use a clean damp cloth or scourer with a cream cleaner e.g. 'Jif' or a powder cleaner e.g. 'Ajax' on the hotplate and trims. Follow the circular grooved pattern on the hotplate when cleaning. Rinse off cleaning agents thoroughly. Dry as for normal soilage.

For more stubborn marks warm the hotplate on a low setting for 30 seconds. Clean the sealed plate with 'Ajax' powder cleaner, 'Jif' cream cleaner or a Brillo pad. You may have to rub hard for several minutes.

Rinse off cleaning agents thoroughly with a damp cloth. Switch to a low or medium setting for a few minutes until the hotplate is thoroughly dry.

CLEANING THE HOTPLATE TRIMS

The stainless steel trims may become straw coloured during use. Using a proprietary stainless steel cleaner , e.g. 'Shiny Sinks' will help maintain a bright appearance. Alternatively a powder cleaner such as 'Bar Keepers Friend' may be used regularly.

CLEANING THE VITREOUS ENAMEL

Use a clean damp cloth or scourer made for non- stick saucepans with 'Jif' cream cleaner.

AFTER CLEANING

To maintain the appearance of the hotplates occasionally apply a little salt free vegetable oil or commercial restorative agent e.g. '4 Hob' or use a 'Minky' Hotplate Cleaning Cloth.

To apply vegetable oil, first heat the hotplate on a medium setting for 30 seconds then turn OFF. Pour a very small amount of oil onto kitchen paper, apply the paper to the hotplate and wipe off any excess oil. Heat the hotplate on a medium setting for 1 minute.

To apply restorative agent, apply a thin coating of '4 Hob' or use a Minky cloth following the manufacturers instructions.

CLEANING THE OUTSIDE OF THE COOKER

DO NOT use abrasive cleaning materials, or scourers on the outside of the cooker as some of the finishes are painted and damage may occur. Regularly wipe over the control panel, oven doors and cooker sides using a soft cloth and liquid detergent.

DO NOT ATTEMPT TO REMOVE ANY OF THE CONTROL KNOBS FROM THE PANEL AS THIS MAY CAUSE DAMAGE AND IS A SAFETY HAZARD.
