Care and Cleaning

the hob and cooking utensils are clean and dry
before use. Regular use of cleaner conditioner is
recommended for proper care and protection of the
hob surface. Apply conditioner before using the hob
for the first time. It contains a mild cleaning agent,
so that subsequent applications may clean off soil
and apply a protective film at the same time. For
stubborn stains or heavy soiling use any of the
following materials, and finish off with conditioner.
1. Cif, non-scratch scouring cream.
2. Liquid Gumption Kitchen Cleanser.
3. Special Powder Cleanser.

again. Wipe out the Grill compartment, use a fine
steel wool soap pad to remove stubborn stains from
the grill runners and the floor of the compartment.

Decorative Trims
It is advisable to clean the decorative trims regularly
to prevent any build up of soiling. The
recommended method of cleaning is to wipe over
the trims with a soft cloth wrung out in warm water or
mild non-abrasive cleaner. (If in doubt try the cleaner
on a small area of trim which is not noticeable in
normal use). Then, after wiping with a cloth wrung
out in clear water, dry with a soft clean cloth.
Ovens
Remove the rod shelves and grill pan. Use a fine
steel wool soap pad to remove stubborn stains from
the rod shelves, grill pan and the floor of the oven.
Clean the glass part of the oven door using a
sponge and a non-abrasive cleaning product, then
dry thoroughly with a soft cloth. Do not use rough
abrasive material or sharp metal scrapers as these
could scratch the surface and cause the glass to
crack.
Oven Shelf Supports
The shelf supports are removable and dishwasher safe.
To remove
hold the support at the front and pull
away from the oven side, this can then be cleaned in
a sink or a dishwasher.
When removed it allows access to the oven side,
which can be cleaned with warm soapy water.
To refit
the support, insert the longer leg into the
rear fixing hole and push in the front leg.
