IMPORTANT!
Before any cleaning or maintenance, always:
turn all burners off.
●
switch the power to the cooktop off at the wall.
●
make sure that the cooktop and its parts are a safe temperature to touch.
●
General advice
Clean the cooktop regularly—do not let stains become burnt on, as they may become
●
very difficult to remove.
Do not use abrasive cleaners, cloths or pads to clean any part of your cooktop. Some
●
nylon scourers may also scratch. Check the label.
Clean up spillages as soon as possible. If left to dry on, food residue may clog the flame
●
ports, causing an uneven flame pattern.
Make sure that no cleaner residue is left on any cooktop part; when heated, these could
●
stain the cooktop.
See the following pages for instructions on replacing the pan supports and
●
reassembling the burners correctly after cleaning.
Do not clean cooktop parts in a self-cleaning oven.
●
Do not use a steam cleaner.
