CLEANING

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.

CLEANING THE BRASS PLATED
HANDLES

It is strongly recommended that only hot soapy water
is used for cleaning the door handles.  ANY OTHER
CLEANING MATERIALS WILL DULL THE BRASS
PLATED FINISH.

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.

FOR NORMAL SOILAGE

Wipe over the hotplates and trims using a clean
damp cloth, if necessary use a little washing up
liquid, then switch to a low or medium setting for a
few minutes to thoroughly dry.

FOR  HEAVY SOILAGE

Remove heavily burnt in soilage with a patent razor
in a holder with care.  Do not use the edge of the
scraper or a knife.  Then soak the soiled area with
hot water to which a little washing up liquid has been
added.  Further clean as below

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.  Rinse off cleaning agents
thoroughly.  Dry as for normal soilage.  

For more stubborn marks warm the hotplate on a low
setting for approximately 6 - 8 minutes. 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.

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

CARE AND CLEANING

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.
