Do’s
• Once the appliance is cold, clean it with a sponge
and soapy water. Remove any spills immediately.
This will avoid unnecessary effort later.
• Allow burners and trivets to cool down before clean-
ing them.
• The burners and trivets must be cleaned regularly to
keep them in good condition. This is done by sub-
merging them in soapy water and scrubbing them
with a non-metal brush to keep the ports and slots
free from obstructions so they give a perfect flame.
Dry the burner caps and trivets whenever wet or
damp.
• After cleaning and drying ensure that the burner
heads and caps are replaced correctly on the burner
body. Refer Fig. 6.
• The high temperatures generated by using the wok
burner may cause the stainless steel hob of your
hotplate to become discoloured over time. THIS IS
NORMAL. Clean the hob with a product suitable
for cleaning stainless steel.
• The trivets on your hob are fitted with rubber feet.
Be careful when cleaning as they may be dislodged
during cleaning, leaving the stainless steel hob un-
protected and subject to surface scratching .
Don’t
• Never use abrasive products, sharp objects, steel
scouring pads, knives, etc., to remove stubborn food
remains from the hob surface, trivets and burners.
• Do not allow acidic products such as vinegar, lemon
juice, etc., to come into contact with the hob.
