Cleaning
Care and maintenance
Before using the hob for the first
time, apply a thin coating of cleaner
conditioner
(eg;
"Hob
Brite",
Homecare*) to the ceramic glass, and
polish the surface with a clean cloth.
The conditioner gives a protective
covering to the ceramic glass which not
only makes the hob easier to clean, but
also ensures that you will gain maximum
life out of this product. Occasional use
will help prevent the build up of mineral
deposits which can cause discolouration
of the hob surface.
Discolouration of the hob
Do not use a dishcloth or dish sponge to
wipe the hob - this can leave a film of
by
detergent on the surface which will
discolour the hob next time a heating
area is used. Clean cloths kept for the
cleaning of the hob can be used.
Do not use too much cleaner conditioner
- only a thin coating is required, any
excess may burn on and discolour the
hob when it is next in use.
If persistent stains or marks remain on
the ceramic glass surface, it can be
cleaned using a mild cream cleaner - eg;
"Cif" - or a ceramic hob scraper. This
will also remove any accumulated salts
or minerals before they have an oppor-
tunity to discolour the ceramic glass.
Wipe clean with a damp paper towel or
clean damp cloth and re-apply cleaner
conditioner.

Using the Grill
Grilling
The grill has two fixed heat setting.
For grilling smaller quantities of food,
the (single element) economy grill can
be utilised. For grilling larger quanti-
ties of food, the (dual element) full grill
can be utilised.
The speed of grilling can be controlled
by selecting a higher or lower shelf
position.
For toasting, and for cooking foods
such as bacon, sausages or steaks,
use a higher shelf position.
For thicker foods such as chops or
chicken joint pieces, use a middle to
low shelf position.
Grilling may also be adjusted by
changing the grill pan trivet position,
as detailed below.
There are three different grilling
positions, as the grill trivet - which is in
the grill pan - may be inverted to give
a high or low position or the trivet may
be removed.
1. The
trivet position is suitable
HIGH
for toasting bread.
2. The
trivet position is suitable for
LOW
grilling all types of meat and fish.
3. With the grill trivet removed the
food is placed directly on the base
of the grill pan - eg; when cooking
whole fish or browning dishes
such as cauliflower cheese.
Aluminium foil
Using aluminium foil to cover the grill
pan, or putting items wrapped in foil
under the grill creates a fire hazard,
and the high reflectivity may damage
the grill element.
