Instruction for Use

Always disconnect the hob from the electrical
power supply and wait until it cools before cleaning
and/or doing maintenance work. in order to keep
your hob in good condition, you must keep it
clean, removing any remaining food each time you
use it. Cleaning the hob surface:
The stainless steel surface may become stained if it
comes into contact with hard water over along
period of time or with extremely strong cleaning
products. Always clean any spillages as quickly as
possible (sauce, coffee, etc..). Wash with lukewarm
water and a mild detergent, rinse and dry carefully
with a soft cloth, or a cloth designed to clean
stainless steel. Only use stainless steel cleaning
products on the stainless steel trim.
• Do not use harsh or corrosive products,
chloride based products or scourers.
• Do not steam clean.
• Do not use inflammable products.
• Do not leave acidic or alkaline based products
like vinegar, mustard, salt, sugar or lemon juice
lying on the hob, as this will damage the hob
and ’etch’ the glass surface.
Note: With time, regular use of the hob could
cause some discolouration around the
burners. This is normal and is caused by the
high temperature of the flame. It will not
affect the operation or performance of the
hob.
General cleaning & maintenance
The pan supports and burners can be removed to
make cleaning easier.
1. Hand wash carefully in hot water with a mild
detergent making sure that all the ingrained dirt
is removed and the openings on the burner are
not blocked. The internal burner cap (D), on
page 12 is made of brass and is subject to a
natural burnishing when it heats up. Clean it
each time you use it with a product specifically
designed for brass. Use hot water and a mild
deteregent to clean the the wok burner
external cap (item (C) on page 12). Never use
harsh products, or scourers that will damage
the special surface coverings.
2. Rinse and dry carefully.
3. Correctly refit the burners and caps in their
place.
4. Make sure that when replacing the pan
supports, the pan support is located correctly
for each burner.
Note: Hobs fitted with electronic ignition and
thermocouples must have the ends of the igniters
and thermocouples cleaned regularly and
frequently in order to operate. Please clean them
very carefully with a damp cloth. Any remaining
ingrained food should be removed carefully with a
toothpick, or similar.
To avoid damaging the electronic ignition only
operate with the burners and pan supports
correctly in place.
