Cleaning your cooker
Essential information
Before thorough cleaning isolate the electricity 
supply. Remember to switch on the electricity 
supply before use.
Never use paint solvents, washing soda, 
caustic cleaners, biological powders, bleach, 
chlorine based bleach cleaners, coarse 
abrasives or salt. Don’t mix different cleaning 
products - they may react together with 
hazardous results. 
Recommended cleaning materials are shown 
in the table at the end of this section.
If you want to move your cooker for cleaning, see 
the section called ‘Moving your cooker’.
All parts of the cooker can be cleaned with hot 
soapy water - but take care that no surplus water 
seeps into the appliance.
For cleaning materials see the ‘Cleaning Table’ at the 
end of this section.
Hob
It’s very easy to clean the Hob with a recommended 
cleaner. 
CAUTION — Do not use abrasive cleaners or pads, 
oven aerosols or pads or stain removers on the 
surface.
Daily care
First of all, be sure that all heat indicator lights are 
off and the cooking surface is cool. Apply a small 
dab, about the size of a 10p piece, of ceramic 
cooking cleaning cream in the centre of each area 
to be cleaned. Dampen a clean paper towel and 
work the cleaning cream on the cooking surface as 
if you were cleaning a window. As a final step, wipe 
the cooking surface with a clean, dry paper towel. 
Cleaning for spills 
For spills and boil-overs that occur while cooking, 
turn the unit off and wipe the area surrounding 
the hot zone with a clean paper towel. If a spill 
(other than a sugary substance) is on the hot zone, 
do not clean until the unit is completely cooled 
down and follow the instructions below (“Cleaning 
for burned-on spills”). If you accidentally melt 
anything on the cooking or if you spill foods with a 
high sugar content (preserves, tomato sauce, etc.), 
REMOVE the spill IMMEDIATELY with a razor scraper, 
while the unit is still hot. IMPORTANT: Use an oven 
glove to protect your hand from potential burns. 
Scrape the major spill or melted material from the 
cooking zone and push into a cold area. Then, turn 
the unit “OFF” and allow to cool before cleaning 
further. After the cooking surface cools down and 
the heat indicator lights go off, use the daily care 
procedure as outlined above. 
Cleaning for burned-on spills 
Be sure that the heat indicator lights are off and the 
hob is cool. Remove excess burned-on substance 
with a single-edged razor scraper. Hold the scraper 
at approximately a 30° angle to the surface and 
scrape off the burned-on matter as you would 
scrape paint off of a window. 
IMPORTANT: Take care when using a sharp scraper. 
When you have removed as much as possible with 
the scraper clean using the daily care procedure as 
described above. 
To remove metal rub-off 
Sliding pans on the hob - especially aluminium or 
copper pans can leave marks on the surface. These 
marks often appear like scratches, but can be easily 
removed using the procedure described above for 
cleaning spills. If the rub-off marks are especially 
stubborn, use the cleaning cream together with the 
razor scraper, using the technique described above.
