Maintenance And Cleaning - Tricity Bendix HG 231 Instruction Booklet

MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING

Before any maintenance or cleaning can be
carried out, you must DISCONNECT the
appliance from the electricity supply.
For hygiene and safety reasons, this
appliance should be kept clean at all times.
A build-up of fats or other foodstuffs could
result in a fire.
Never line any part of the hob with
aluminium foil.
An unsuitable cleaning preparation can do
more harm than good, so it is important to
note the following:
1. Spillage should be wiped up as it occurs
but care should be taken as the hob will be
hot. Before doing any extensive cleaning
allow the hob to cool.
2. The fascia panel and control knobs can
be cleaned using soapy water and a damp
cloth. Polish dry with a soft cloth.
3. The hob surface, pan support and burners
head can be cleaned using mild abrasive,
but take care not to damage the spark
electrodes.
4. The pan supports are dishwasher proof. If
washing them by hand, take care when
drying them as the enamelling process
occasionally leaves rough edges.
5. The burner crowns can be removed for
cleaning. Wash these parts frequently in hot
soapy water. Stubborn staines can be
removed by soaking in hot water then
scouring them with a soap filled pad. The
burner crown may loose its matt surface
after several clanings but this will no way
impair its function.
6. Do not use any polishes, caustic cleaners,
abrasives, washing soda or soap powder,
except as recommended in this booklet.
