Cleaning and Maintenance

Before any cleaning or maintenance intervention, disconnect the
cooker from the electricity supply and allow it to cool down.
Cleaning the Hob
Drops of sauce, fruit juice etc., should be removed as soon as possible
with a soft cloth soaked in warm detergent water. Do not use steel
wool or knives to take off layers of crust. Remove stubborn marks with
a well wetted soap impregnated pad, but care must be taken not to
scratch the enamel. Wash the enamelled grids with water and
detergent; these can also be washed a dishwasher.
Take off the burner caps and crowns and the grids and wash them
carefully with warm water and detergent. Check the holes in the
burner crowns are not abstructed. Dry them well before putting them
back in position. When placing back the burner caps and crowns and
the hob grids ensure they are properly fitted.
The burner body can be rubbed with steel wool or a slightly abrasive
cloth.
Clean the hob lid with warm water only , and avoid the use of rough
cloths or abrasive substances.
Cleaning the oven
Carefully clean the oven cavity after use when it is still warm. Use
warm detergent water or suitable spray oven cleaners. Do not point
sprays to the matt steel parts as this could damage them and always
follow the manufacturer's instructions. Clean the oven accessories
(grid, dripping pan etc.) with warm water and detergent.
Remove built-up of fat with a slightly abrasive powder.
• Take care when using cleaning products in spray form: never direct
the spray onto the heating elements or the thermostat bulb.
