from the electrical supply before you do cleaning or maintenance work.

ers.

ance.
Scratches or dark stains on the surface have no effect on how the appliance operates.
• You can remove the pan supports to easily clean the hob.
• To clean the enamelled parts, cap and crown, wash them with warm soapy water and dry
them carefully before you put them back.
• Wash stainless steel parts with water, and then dry them with a soft cloth.
• The pan supports are not dishwasher proof. They must be washed by hand.
• When you wash the pan supports by hand, take care when you dry them as the enamel-
ling process occasionally leaves rough edges. If necessary, remove stubborn stains using a
paste cleaner.
• Make sure you position the pan supports correctly after cleaning.
• To make the burners work correctly, make sure that the arms of the pan supports are in
the centre of the burner.
