Care and maintenance
Important:
As a safety measure, before you start cleaning the cooker be sure to disconnect it from the mains supply.
Do not use a steam cleaner because the moisture can get into the appliance thus make it unsafe.
Cleaning the hob
Spillage on the hob can usually be removed by a damp soapy cloth. More obstinate stains can be removed by rubbing gently with a soapy scouring pad or mild household cleaner.
Burners
They can be removed and washed only with soapy water.
Detergents can be used but must not be abrasive or corrosive.
Do not use abrasive sponges or pads.
Do not put in dishwasher.
After each cleaning, make sure that the burner-caps, as well as the burners, have been well wiped off and CORRECTLY POSITIONED.
It is essential to check the correct position of the burner-caps as the least displacement from the housing may cause serious problems.
