Care and cleaning

WARNING!

Before cleaning always allow the appliance to cool down before switching off at the electricity supply.

Cleaning materials

Before using any cleaning materials on your appliance, 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 and scourers should also be avoided. Multi-surface anti-bacterial cleaning products should not be used on the ceramic hob or on the surrounding trims.

Cleaning the outside of the appliance

Do not use abrasive cleaning materials e.g. abrasive cream cleaners, wire wool pads or scourers on painted or printed finishes as damage may occur. Regularly wipe over the control panel, handles, doors and appliance sides using a soft cloth and hot soapy water. To prevent streaking, finish with a soft cloth.

Stainless Steel cream cleaners are abrasive and should be avoided as they may dull the surface finish. Any spillage on the stainless steel finish must be wiped off immediately.

Cleaning the ceramic hob

Make sure the ceramic glass is cool before cleaning. It is important to clean the ceramic hob daily to prevent foodstuff being burnt on.

28

Take care to avoid the hob trims when cleaning the ceramic glass as they may be damaged by the cleaning agents.

Daily cleaning

Use a hob-cleaning product specifically designed for ceramic hobs daily. If foodstuff is not allowed to burn on it will be much easier to clean off.

Apply a small amount of hob cleaner in the centre of each area to be cleaned.

Dampen a clean paper towel or a plastic pad designed for non-stick saucepans and rub vigorously until all marks are removed. This may take a few minutes.

Wipe off residues of cleaner with another damp paper towel and polish dry with a soft cloth.

If hob cleaner is unavailable, one or more of the cleaning agents below may be used temporarily:

Cream Cleaner

Baking Soda

To remove more stubborn marks

Cream cleaner may be used to clean off more stubborn stains or to remove discolouration.

It may be necessary to rub the marks hard for several minutes.

Use a plastic pad designed for non-stick saucepans with cream cleaner for removal of more stubborn stains.
