CLEANING AND CARING FOR THE COOKER

WARNING
Always make sure that the appliance is turned off before
you clean it.
All surfaces should be kept clean to reduce the risk of
damage or fire.
Cleaning Enamel and Glass Door Panels
Keep it clean by wiping it regularly with a soft cloth
dipped in warm soapy water. Rub persistent stains
vigorously with a creamed powder cleanser.
NOTE: You can also use household oven enamel cleaners
- follow the manufacturer's instructions carefully. Do
not use harsh abrasive cleaners, nylon scourers, powder
cleaners, steel wool, steam cleaners or wax polishes.
Always check manufacturer's recommendations before
using their product.
When cleaning glass door panels harsh abrasive cleaners
and sharp metal scrapers should not be used, as they can
scratch the surface and result in premature failure.
Cleaning your Control Panel
• Make sure control knobs are in the OFF position.
• Clean control panel with a soft damp cloth dipped in
warm soapy water.
Do not use excess water when cleaning control panel.
Cleaning your Hotplates
Radiant Hotplates
These hotplates are self-cleaning, so any boil over
material will burn to ash and may be wiped away when
the hotplate is cold.
The elements are removable so the spillage bowls can be
removed for cleaning.
WARNING
Always make sure that the appliance is turned off before
replacing the hotplates. Be careful not to bend terminal
ends when replacing hotplates.
To remove:
1. Make sure elements are cold.
2. Lift up the edge of the element across from the
terminal end just enough to clear the edge of the
spillage bowl.
3. Gently slide the element out of the terminal plug
and set aside.
4. Lift the spillage bowl up and out.
5. Wash the spillage bowl(s) in warm soapy water.

terminal end through the opening and into the
terminal plug.
3. Place one hand on the front of the element while
gently lifting the rear of the element near the
terminal plug until the element is level.
4. Be sure the element is level to reduce the chance of
pans sliding off during use.
Ceramic Hotplates
1. Remove all spilt food and fat with the supplied razor
blade scraper, while the ceramic glass is still warm
but not hot. Wipe clean with dishwashing detergent
on a damp cloth.
2. If aluminium foil, plastic items or high sugar content
liquids/foods are allowed to melt on the ceramic
glass, these should be removed immediately with
the supplied razor blade scraper before the surface
has cooled down, otherwise pitting of the surface
can occur.
NOTE: Items with high sugar content not only include
jam and fruit, but also vegetables such as peas, tomatoes
and carrots. When the ceramic glass is cool wipe clean
with dishwashing detergent on a damp cloth.
3. Do not use abrasive sponges or scourers, as they
may scratch the cooktop.
4. Do not use oven sprays or stain removers as these
products may also damage the surface.
