Before any maintenance or
cleaning can be carried out, you
must DISCONNECT the hob from
the electricity supply and wait
until it has cooled down.
This appliance cannot be cleaned
with steam or with a steam
cleaning machine.
The Hob Top
Regularly wipe over the hob top using a soft
cloth well wrung out in warm water to which
a little washing up liquid has been added.
Avoid the use of the following:
- household detergent and bleaches;
- impregnated pads unsuitable for non-stick
saucepans;
- steel wool pads;
- bath/sink stain removers.
Should the hob top become heavily soiled, it
is recommended that proper cleaning product
is used.
If scratches or cracks are noticed
on the glass top, immediately
disconnect the appliance from the
electrical supply to avoid the risk
of electrical shock. Then, contact
your local Service Force Centre
and avoid using the appliance
until it has been repaired.
The Pan Supports
The pan supports are dishwasher proof. If
washing them by hand, take care when
drying them as the enamelling process
occasionally leaves rough edges. If
necessary, remove stubborn stains using a
paste cleaner.
The pan supports can be removed from the
hob to enable better cleaning. After cleaning
the hob, ensure the pan supports are
properly placed as shown in the diagram.
