steel cleaner and follow the instructions on the container.
Paint
Side panels
Wipe with a cloth wrung out in warm soapy water only. DO NOT USE
ABRASIVES.
Ceramic
Use a ceramic hob cleaner-conditioner whenever cleaning is done. The
cleaner-conditioner forms a protective film on the hob and contains a
mild detergent which makes cleaning easir.
A cleaner-conditioner can be obtained either through a local Service
Centre or retailer, part number 6004.
To clean off stubborn stains the following can be used when the surface
has cooled:
1. Cif, non-scratch cream cleaner.
2. Heavy soil can be removed from the surface by carefully using a
glass scraper.
3. Hard water stains, grease spots and any discolouration having a
metal sheen can be removed with Solvol Autosol Super or any non
abrasive stainless steel cleaner.
After cleaning, always use the cleaner-conditioner and finish it off by
polishing with a clean, dry paper towel. Never use abrasive chemical
oven cleaners as they can damage the surface of the hob.
The visual effect of scratches which may occur in use can be minimised
by the use of the cleaner-conditioner. Such scratches cannot be
removed but do not affect the function of the hob in any way.
