CLEANING THE HOB
Clean the hotplate top using a mild abrasive. Take 
care not to damage the spark electrodes. If the 
spark electrodes are damaged the burners will not 
light. 
You can remove the pan supports, burner caps and 
burner crowns to clean them. Again take care not to 
damage the spark electrodes. 
Clean the burner crowns and pan supports by 
soaking them in very hot soapy water. Aluminium 
based saucepans can leave shiny metal marks on 
the pan supports. You can remove any stubborn 
stains by scouring with a soap impregnated steel 
wool pad. If you look after the burner crowns and 
pan supports in this way they will stay reasonably 
clean. However the surface will dull with time. 
After cleaning the appliance parts, dry them 
thoroughly before you put them back. 
WHEN REPLACING HOTPLATE BURNER 
PARTS 
1. Crown to body. (Do not try to force the crown
on to the body). 
Make sure that the hole in the crown is over the 
electrode. Check that the location pegs sit in the 
slots in the body. When the crown is in this 
position let it fall freely on to the body. Check 
that the crown can be moved slightly from side 
to side. 
2. Cap to crown. Place cap centrally on the top of
crown (enamel side up). Move sideways and 
front to back to check the cap is properly fitted. 
3. Check for ignition. If a burner will not light then
you need to check the crown and cap positions.
CLEANING THE SHELVES, WIRE- WORK 
RUNNERS AND GRILL/OVEN FURNITURE 
All removable parts, except the grill pan handle can 
be washed in the dishwasher. 
The grill pan, grill pan grid, oven shelves and 
wirework runners may be cleaned using a soap 
impregnated steel wool pad. Soaking first in hot 
soapy water will make cleaning easier. 
 
CLEANING THE GRILL
Do not
clean the grill burner itself. Cleaning the grill
may cause the holes in the burner to become 
blocked preventing it from operating correctly. Due 
to the nature of stainless steel the grill burner may 
tarnish through use over a period of time. This is 
quite normal and is not a fault on the appliance 
Clean the area around the grill frequently using hot 
soapy water.
