Maintenance And Cleaning - Jocel JP3GV009029 Instruction Manual

Take care when frying food in hot oil or fat, as the overheated splashes could easily ignite.
Warning: The user against the use of cooking vessels on the hotplate that overlap its
edges.
As soon as a liquid starts boiling, turn down the flame so that it will barely keep the liquid
simmering. If the control knobs become difficult to turn, please contact your local service
centre.

MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING

Before any maintenance or cleaning can be carried out, you must DISCONNECT the hob
from the electricity supply.
The hob is best cleaned whilst it is still warm; as spillage can be removed more easily than
if it is left to cool.
The Hob Panel
Regularly wipe over the hob top using a soft cloth well wrung out in warm water to which a
little washing up liquid has been added. Avoid the use of the following: -household
detergent and bleaches; -impregnated pads unsuitable for non-stick saucepans; -steel
wool pads; -bath/sink stain removers. For stainless steel hobs use a proprietary stainless-
steel cleaner.
Pan Supports
The pan supports are dishwasher proof. If washing them by hand, take care when drying
them as the enameling and drying process occasionally leaves rough edges. If necessary,
remove stubborn stains using a paste cleaner.
The Burners
The burner caps and crowns can be removed for cleaning. Wash the burner caps and
crowns using hot soapy water, and remove marks with a mild paste cleaner. A well
moistened soap impregnated steel wool pad can be used with caution, if the marks are
particularly difficult to remove. After cleaning, be sure to wipe dry with a soft cloth.
Ignition electrode
The electric ignition is obtained through a ceramic "electrode" and a metal electrode (see
diagram on page 19 - number 4). Keep these components very clean, to avoid lighting
difficulties, and check that the burner crown holes are not obstructed.
Thermocouple
The thermocouple is very crucial for cutting gas supply in case of flame out during cooking,
be sure to keep them in very clean condition.
