How To Deal With Metal Marks
Metal deposits can be identified as grey/brown marks on
the ceramic surface and are usually caused by dragging
saucepans with aluminium bases, particu-larly when
new, across the ceramic surface.
To avoid these marks, protect the surface of the hob with
Cleaner Conditioner and lift the saucepans across the
heated areas. Ensure that new aluminium based
saucepans are well scrubbed on the base to remove any
rough edges and take off any deposits left from
manufacture.
The marks are easily removable, providing they are
cleaned off straight away using the recommended
cleaners, and are not allowed to burn onto the ceramic
surface for long periods.
About Discolouration
Discolouration occurs on the surface,
not IN
it.
By following proper care and cleaning recommen-
dations the surface will remain clean and bright.
The cooking surface should be cleaned thoroughly each
day to remove all visable spills. Cleaner Condi-tioner has
been specially formulated, to use only as much as
necessary. If the Cleaner Conditioner is used too
generously, a heavy film may be left that will burn on and
discolour when the areas are heated. When this occurs,
lightly scrub the surface with a dampened non-stick pan
cleaner, this will help to loosen the excess Cleaner
Conditioner. Then wipe the surface with a dampened
cloth and polish with a soft dry cloth.
Important Notes
a) In the event of the hob being scratched, spills will
collect and appear as fine lines. These are not fully
removable but, can be minimised by the daily use of
Cleaner Conditioner. These scratches do not affect
the cooking performance.
b) Spills from sugar solutions
MUST
be removed from
the hob before the syrup has set, otherwise damage
to the glass ceramic surface will occur.
c) Do not place aluminium foil dishes on the hot sur-face
as these will cause damage to the hob.
d) Hob Brite Cleaner Conditioner is the current recom-
mended cleaner for use on the ceramic hob.
e) Cleaner Conditioner is for the ceramic hob only and
must NOT be used as a general all purpose cleaner.
