CLEANING AND CARE

CAUTION
Ensure the appliance is off and cool before cleaning.
Enamel (on burner skirts and trivets)
Persistent stains may require rubbing with a nylon scourer or creamed powder cleansers. Household enamel cleaners are
available, follow the manufacturer's instructions in their use. Harsh abrasive cleaners, powder cleaners, steel wool
or wax polishes should not be used.
Stainless steel (Models with Stainless Steel hob)
Simply wipe with a soft cloth using warm water and a mild detergent and rinse with clean water. Where stainless steel has
become extremely dirty or discoloured, use a stainless steel cleaner – but be sure to follow the brushing lines.
CAUTION
If the ceramic glass surface is cracked, switch off the appliance immediately to avoid the possibility of electric shock.
Trivets and burners
These can all be lifted off and removed for separate cleaning.
NOTE! When refitting the burners, ensure that they are correctly seated.
Ensure burners are thoroughly dried after cleaning or spillage. When cleaning the burners, ensure that all the flame ports
are free of any blockage (refer to Figure 1b on page 4). If necessary, use a toothpick or brush to clear ports. The outer
surface of the burner caps have a polished finish and extra care needs to be taken to avoid scratching this surface during
cleaning. In instances of heavy soiling, it may be necessary to apply a non-abrasive cleaning compound and rub with a
cloth until the soiling is removed and then finish with a soft, dry cloth.
NOTE! DO NOT place trivets or burners in the dishwasher.
Ignition spark plug and flame safeguard sensor
GENTLY clean the ignition spark plug and flame safeguard sensor with a damp cloth to avoid lighting difficulties.
Ensure that they are dry before use.
Injector
Ensure the injector remains free of any foreign material. When cleaning the burner spill bowl, first put tape over the injector
hole before wipe out the spill bowl to avoid to block the injector hole, then remove the tape after cleaning.
If necessary, use a thin piece of wire to clear the orifice.
Do's
Use pots with a flat base.
Clean when cold unless sugar spills which should be removed
with a ceramic scraper.

Don'ts

scratches to the surface
Do not clean when hot as it is dangerous and cleaning
products can burn and stain.
Do not leave food residues or water on the ceramic as the
contamination can damage the ceramic and screening printed
graphics
Do not use steel wool or scourer pads that are not specified as
non-scratch (usually green in colour). Heavy duty scourers are
too abrasive
Do not use general abrasive cleaners as these can cause
micro-scratches, dulling the glass surface and increasing the
likelihood of contamination embedding into the glass
Do not use the ceramic top as a cutting board or work bench
as this will cause scratches.

CUSTOMER ADVICE
Sometimes SURFACE stains appear to be a "bubble" mark under the ceramic glass.
These can be cleaned off with a razor blade scraper and ceramic cleaner.

If the deposit is minimal, simply wipe off with a dry cloth.
If the deposit is more stubborn, clean off with a moist soapy sponge then rinse off.
If the deposit still does not clean off easily, use a non-abrasive nylon scratch pad and special purpose ceramic glass
cleaning agent such as Cerapol cleaner (ACC019 - Available from our web shop).
If the deposits are still burnt on and above methods did not work, use a specially designed ceramic glass scraper
(0383001001 - Available from our web shop).
After having successful cleaned the cooktop, apply a ceramic glass conditioner Ceraseal protector (ACC018 -
Available from our web shop). The conditioner will leave a protective coating that will help prevent future stains from
becoming baked on. Marks which appear to be bubbles under the ceramic will also clean off. Use Ceraseal (ACC018)
to help protect the ceramic and allow for easier cleaning. Polish on with a dry clean cloth.
