Cleaning; Cleaning The Ceramic Hob - Zanussi HC9518 Instructions For The Use & Care

Cleaning
THE ELECTRICITY SUPPLY MUST
BE SWITCHED OFF BEFORE
CLEANING
All exterior surfaces are hard wearing,
easily cleaned and impervious to all
normal heat and spillage encountered
during cooking. Vitreous enamel can be
chipped by a hard blow and reasonable
care should be exercised. The exterior
surfaces including the oven doors should
be cleaned using a little liquid detergent
in hot water, and polish with a soft cloth.
Cleaners which contain bleach should
not be used as they may dull the surface.
Harsh abrasives may also affect the
finish and should not be used. When
removing parts of the cooker for
cleaning, we recommended that they are
not subjected to thermal shock i.e. do not
plunge a very hot grill pan or meat pan
into warm or cold water.
Note:
Before using any proprietary oven
cleaner, ensure that it is suitable for
application on polished surfaces e.g.
chromium, anodised aluminium, stainless
steel, vetreous enamel. Certain cleaners
may have an adverse effect.
Cleaning the Ceramic Hob
Make sure that the glass ceramic surface
is cool before applying any cleaning
materials.
1. Save on cleaning time:
• Make sure the bottom of the utensils
and cooking areas are clean and dry.
• Select correct heat settings and use
saucepans large enough to
accommodate food and liquid to
eliminate boilovers and spattering.
• If possible, wipe up food spills and
splatter from adjacent heating areas
before using areas for cooking.
2. Daily care:
Use Cleaner Conditioner daily. As it
cleans, it leaves a protective coating
of silicon on the smooth surface which
helps prevent scratches and abrasions
in which food particles can collect. It
also helps prevent build-up of mineral
deposits and will make future cleaning
easier.
• Apply a dab of Cleaner Conditioner
in the centre of each heated area to be
cleaned (For normal cleaning, start
with about 1/8 of a teaspoon (5ml) of
Cleaner Conditioner and apply more if
needed.
• Dampen clean paper towel and
clean unit. To remove more stubborn
soilage use a slightly dampened non-
impregnated plastic or nylon pad
specially made for non-stick utensils,
e.g. Scotchbrite, or Vileda non-stick
pan cleaners,
• Wipe off this application with
another clean, damp paper towel and
wipe dry.
