exclusively with soapy water and dry well before replacing them.
THE HOT PLATE
Heat it for a while if necessary, to burn the deposits. After switching off and cooling down
of the plate, wipe it with an absorbing paper. In any cases, it is important to protect the hot
plate from humidity.
Do not use abrasive products.
To maintain and preserve the appearance, rub a
drop
of neutral oil, such as sewing machine
oil into the surface of the hot plate.
The hot plate should always be dry, or slightly greasy, if it is not to be used for some time.
Remove any rust using emery paper followed by a suitable commercially available product.
