To remove burnt on foodstuff • We strongly recommend the use of a Ceramic Hob Scraper (incorporating a single edge razor blade) to remove spillage on the hob, in particular sugar solutions, which if not removed can cause permanent damage. • Make sure the ceramic glass is cool. • Use a ceramic hob scraper with care at an angle of 30° to remove as much foodstuff as possible. • Use hob cleaner or cream cleaner to finish off as directed above. • Rust stain, bath and sink stain removers. • Any of the above products may cause damage to the hob. • It is dangerous to mix different cleaning products. The chemicals in them may react with each other with hazardous results. • Sugar solutions must be removed from the hob before the syrup has set otherwise damage to the hob surface will occur. • Avoid placing plastic items, foil or dishes on the hot surface as this will cause damage to the hob. To remove discolourations or white and silver marks • These marks sometimes give the impression of being in or underneath the hob glass. They can almost always be removed provided they have not become excessively burnt on. Follow the instructions above under 'To remove more stubborn marks'. • If this is unsuccessful, make up a paste of one part water to three parts Cream of Tarter and leave on the discoloured areas overnight. The marks should be easily removable the next day provided they have not been excessively burnt on. The paste should be thoroughly washed off afterwards. To reduce marking of the hob • Make sure the bottom of the saucepan and the cooking area is clean and dry before cooking begins. • Ensure saucepans are large enough to accommodate food to avoid boil-over. • If possible, wipe up spills and splatters as they occur, but take care to avoid steam burns. • Avoid using a dishcloth or sponge to clean the hob. These may leave a layer of soiled detergent on the hob surface, which will burn and discolour the next time the hob is used. Avoid the use of: • Household detergents and bleaches. • Impregnated plastic or nylon pads that are not described as suitable for non-stick saucepans. • Abrasive cleaning pads, scourers and steel wool pads. • Chemical oven cleaners, e.g. aerosols and oven pads. Cleaning the grill/oven furniture • All removable parts, except the grill pan handle can be washed in the dishwasher. • The grill pan, grill pan grid and oven shelves may be cleaned using a soap impregnated steel wool pad. Soaking first in hot soapy water will make cleaning easier. Cleaning inside the grill and oven compartments • The vitreous enamel main oven and grill compartment can be cleaned using normal oven cleaners with care. Ensure that the manufacturers instructions are followed and that all parts are well rinsed afterwards. IMPORTANT! Aerosol cleaners must not come into contact with elements, the door seal, or any painted finishes as this may cause damage. Cleaning the door(s) ! WARNING! To prevent damaging or weakening the door glass panels avoid the use of the following: • Household detergents and bleaches. • Soap impregnated pads unsuitable for nonstick saucepans. • Abrasive cleaning pads, scorers and steel wool pads. • Chemical oven pads or aerosols. • Rust removers. • Bath/Sink stain removers. 19
