USING THE INDUCTION HOB
About the induction hob
The induction hob provides the most
energy efficeint hob technology avail-
able.
The induction system provides superior
heat up and cool down times for pans
- you get fast, precise, repeatable
power control.
As induction only heats up the pan,
there is no lost heat from the cooking
process, which in turn, limits the heat
generated in the kitchen.
Auto Power Tuning
Induction hobs have a unique power
tuning systems that automatically tunes
the power to the size of the pan base
this ensures energy isn’t wasted.

To turn the hob ‘OFF’ turn the control knob anti-clockwase to the ‘OFF’ position.
Auto Heat Up
Helps to take the worry out of pans boiling over and burning food! No need to
stand over the pan, allows you to do other tasks whilst maintaining control over the
pan.
The Auto Heat Up is activated by rotating he control knob anti-clockwise and hold-
ing for a couple of seconds until the symbol lights up in the display area, then by
rotating the control knob to the required turn down setting.
The Auto Heat Up delivers full power (9) to the zone for a fixed period of time
before automatically turning back down to the desired setting.
The Auto Heat Up has been tuned to provide the best boost period for each setting.
Average Auto Heat up time is 3 minutes.

USING THE INDUCTION HOB
Power Boost
Rev up your hob with this feature, tem-
porarily boost the power to a cook
zone by a massive 60%.
The power boost is a function that can
be used to temporally boost the nor-
mal maximum power for a cook zone
by borrowing the available power
from a “paired zone”.
Note The Power Boost function will
only operate for a limited time and
is also under thermal control. This
means the power boost will deac-
tivate automatically if the product
is hot, to protect the internal elec-
tronic components of the hob and
to prevent the cookware from over-
heating.
All the cook zones have this function
apart from the “Griddle Zone ” func-
tion.
The Power Boost is activated by rotat-
ing the control knob clockwise past
power setting 9 and holding for a cou-
ple of seconds until
lights up in the
display area. Power Boost is now acti-
vated.
The hob is split into “two paired
areas”.
LH Area (LHF and LHR Cook Zone)
and RH Area (RHF and RHR Cook
Zone).
Only one cook zone per area can be
boosted at anyone time.

Pan detection
When a zone has been activated but
no pan has been placed on the cook
zone, this means the hob only uses
power when a suitable pan is placed
on the zone, this reduces the energy
used during the cooking process, i.e.
when you take your pan off the zone
the hob automatically reduces the
power, and only switches back on
when you replace the pan.

OVEN & GRILL FUNCTIONS
Function
Recommended Uses
Used to finish off the bases of food following cooking using the
conventional or fanned modes. The base heat can be used to pro-
vide additional browning for pizzas, pies and quiche. Use this
function towards the end of cooking.
Base Heat Only
The heat is ideal for browning off the tops of food as it is not as
fierce as the grill following conventional or fanned cooking.
Provides additional browning for dishes like lasagne or cauliflower
cheese. Use this function towards the end of cooking.
Top Heat Only
This function is ideal for traditional roasting, The meat is placed in
the middle of the oven, roast potatoes towards the top.
Conventional Oven
Ideal for pizzas and also suitable for food with a high moisture
content, such as quiche, bread and cheesecake. It also elimi-
nates the need for baking pastry blind.
Intensive Bake
(Pizza Setting)
The fan allows the heat to circulate around the food. Ideal for
thinner foods such as bacon, fish and gammon steaks. Foods do
not require turning. Use with the oven door closed.
Fanned Grill
The even temperature in the oven makes this function suitable for
batch baking or batch cooking foods.
Fanned Oven
To defrost foods, such as cream cakes/gateaux, use with the oven
door closed. For cooling dishes prior to refrigeration, leave the
door open.
Defrost
Dual Grill
Single Grill
This function cooks food from the top and is ideal for a range of
food from toast to steaks. As the whole grill is working, you can
cook larger quantities of food.
For smaller quantities of food, but is still ideal for anything from
toast to steaks.
Used to cook open pies (such as mince pies) the base element
ensures that the base is cooked while the fan allows the air to cir-
culate around the filling - without being too intensive.

Preheating
For best results, preheat the grill for
3 - 5 minutes.
Aluminium foil
Using aluminium foil to cover the grill
pan, or putting items wrapped in foil
under the grill can create a fire hazard,
and the high reflectivity can damage
the grill element.
The handle should be removed from
the pan during grilling, to prevent
overheating.
The handle is designed for removing /
inserting the grill pan under the grill
when grilling.
If cleaning the grill pan when it is hot,
use oven gloves to move it. Do not use
the handle to pour hot fats from the
grill pan.
Food for grilling should be positioned
centrally on the trivet.

For grilling smaller quantities of food
the (single element) economy grill can
be utilised. This grill function can be
controlled between settings 1 and 8.
The top oven grill is a fully variable
dual element grill.
For grilling larger quantities of food,
the (dual element) full grill can be
utilised. The full grill can also be
controlled between settings 1 and 8.
To switch on the grill
When using the grill in the top oven,
the speed of grilling can be controlled
by use of either the variable control
or by selecting higher or lower shelf
position.
For toasting, and for grilling foods
such as bacon, sausages or steaks,
use a higher shelf position.
Open the top oven / grill door.
Turn the top oven control knob past the
oven temperature markings to either
the single economy grill
or the dual grill symbol.
symbol,
The grill regulator - to the left of the top
oven control - must then be switched
on. This enables variation of the heat
output from the grill on either the single
grill or dual grill settings.
The dual grill uses all of the top
element, and the single economy grill
setting uses the inner part of the
element only.
Important: The door must be kept
open when the grill is used.
To switch off, return the control knob to
the “off” position.
For thicker foods such as chops or
chicken joint pieces, use a middle to
low shelf position.
The cooling fan
When the grill is switched on, you will
hear the cooling fan come on - this
keeps the fascia and control knobs of
the appliance cool during grilling. The
fan may continue to operate for a peri-
od after the grill control has been
switched off.

USING THE GRILLS
Grilling in the main oven
Fanned grill
Caution: Accessible parts may
be hot when the grill is used -
young children should be kept
away.
The door must be closed when the
fanned grill is used.
When opening the door, take care to
avoid skin contact with any steam
which may escape from the cooking.
The grill / fanned grill settings use the
inner element only.
(i) Turn the selector control knob to
the fan grill setting.
Conventional grill
(ii) Turn the temperature control knob to
the desired temperature up to 230˚C.
Fanned grilling may be faster than
conventional grilling because air is
being circulated around the food.
Thin portions of food, such as bacon
or fish fillets, may not need turning.
The door must be closed when the grill
is used for conventional grilling.
When opening the door, take care to
avoid skin contact with any steam
which may escape from the cooking.
(i) Turn the selector control knob to
the conventional grill setting.
(ii) Turn the temperature control knob
to the desired temperature for grilling,
similar to oven function. However,
do not set to a temperature greater
than 230˚C.
For best results, preheat the grill for
3 - 5 minutes.
Note that when grilling, the door must
remain closed before and after
grilling, and the temperature control
must not exceed 230˚C.
Grilling in the main oven
The speed of grilling can be controlled
by selecting a higher or lower shelf
position.
For toasting, and for grilling foods
such as bacon, sausages or steaks,
use a higher shelf position.
For thicker foods such as chops or
chicken joint pieces, use a middle to
low shelf position.

USING THE TOP OVEN
When you are cooking keep
The cooling fan
children away from the vicinity
of the oven.
When the top oven is switched on, you
will hear the cooling fan come on - this
keeps the fascia and control knobs of
the appliance cool during cooking.
The fan will continue to operate for a
period after the oven control has been
switched off.
Caution: The top element gets
extremely hot when in use, so take
extra care to avoid touching it.
The top oven is a conventional oven
Note: The top oven is not controlled by
Preheating
the programmer.
The oven must be preheated when
cooking frozen or chilled foods, and
we recommend preheating for yeast
mixtures, batters, soufflés, and
whisked sponges.
Preheat the oven until the indicator
light switches off for the first time, this
will take up to 20 minutes depending
on the temperature selected.
If you are not preheating the oven, the
cooking times in the following guide
may need to be extended, as they are
based on a preheated oven.
To turn on the top oven
Turn the temperature control knob
clockwise until the required temperature
is selected.
The red thermostat indicator will come
on until the selected temperature is
reached, and then go off; it will turn
on and off periodically as the
thermostat operates to maintain the
selected temperature.
To switch off, return the top oven
control knob to the off position.
Important: Never put items directly
on the base of the oven, or cover the
oven base with foil, as this may cause
the element to overheat.

Always
Top heat only
Turn the top oven selector past the
oven temperature markings to the top
heat symbol. This fixed heat setting
can be used to brown the top of dish-
es such as cauliflower cheese or
baked alaska.
20
USING THE TOP OVEN
Shelf positions
There are 2 shelf positions which are
counted from the bottom of the oven
upwards, so shelf position 1 is the lowest.
When cooking frozen or chilled food,
use the highest possible shelf position,
while allowing some clearance
between the food and the top element.
The oven shelf must be positioned with
the upstand at the rear of the oven and
facing up. Position baking trays and
roasting tins on the middle of the
shelves, and leave one clear shelf posi-
tion between shelves, to allow for cir-
culation of heat.
When using the top oven
As part of the cooking process, hot air
is expelled through a vent at the top of
the oven(s). When opening the oven
door, care should be taken to avoid
any possible contact with potentially hot
air, since this may cause discomfort to
people with sensitive skin. We recommend
that you hold the underneath of the
oven door handle.

Using the Top Oven
Top oven baking guide
Cooking temperatures
The temperature settings and time
given in the Baking Guides are based
on dishes made with block margarine.
If soft tub margarine is used, it may be
necessary to reduce the temperature
setting. If a recipe gives a different
temperature setting to that shown in
the guide, the recipe instruction should
be followed.
Cooking times
These times are based on cooking in a
preheated oven.
These cooking times are approximate,
because the size and type of cooking
dish will influence time as well as per-
sonal preferences.
Shelf positions
Because the top oven is more
compact, it may be necessary to
reduce cooking temperatures specified
in recipes by up to 20˚C.
Use the baking guide as a reference
for determining which temperatures
to use.
As a general guide, when cooking
frozen or chilled food, use the highest
possible shelf position, while allowing
some clearance between the food and
the top element. Follow the instructions
given on packaging.

USING THE MULTI-FUNCTION MAIN OVEN
Caution: Accessible parts may
be hot when the oven is used,
young children should be kept
away.
To turn on the main oven
Step 1 - Select the function
Turn the selector control knob in either
direction, until the function you require
is selected.
The main oven is a multi-function oven,
and may be used as a conventional
oven or a fanned oven. It may also be
used as a grill, or with one of the other
oven functions.
Step 2 - Set the main oven control
If you have selected an oven cooking
function, then simply turn the main
oven control knob clockwise to the
required temperature - this brings on
the neon indicator light, which will
stay on until the oven reaches the
required temperature.
If you have selected defrost, do not
turn the thermostat control on.
To switch off the main oven, return the
Manual operation
The programmer must be set to manual
operation before the main oven or grill

Baking tray and roasting tins
See ‘Programmer / Clock’ section.
For best cooked results and even
browning, the maximum size baking
trays and roasting tins that should be
used are as follows;
Baking tray
350mm x 280mm
This size of baking tray will hold up to
16 small cakes.
Roasting tin
370mm x 320mm
We recommend that you use good
quality cookware. Poor quality trays
and tins may warp when heated,
leading to uneven baking results.

USING THE MAIN OVEN
Oven cooking
Preheating (conventional mode)
Caution: Accessible parts may
be hot when the appliance is in
use - keep children away from
the vicinity of the oven.
When using the conventional mode to
cook sensitive items such as scouffle’s
and Yorkshire puddings or, when
cooking bread, we recommend that
the oven is pre-heated until the neon
switches off for the first time. For any
other types of cooking, a pre-heat is
not required.
Never put items directly on the base of
the oven or cover the oven base with
foil, as this can cause the base element
to overheat.
Always use the fan oven setting for
preheating to save time and electricity.
After the oven has been preheated on
the fan oven setting, turn the selector
control knob to the oven setting you
require.
Preheat the oven until the indicator
neon switches off for the first time;
this will take between 5 - 15 minutes,
depending on the temperature selected.
Manual operation
Set the programmer to manual operation.
See ‘Programmer / Clock’ section.
Turn the selector control knob until the
symbol for the desired oven function is
selected.
Turn the main oven control knob to the
desired temperature.
The red thermostat indicator neon will
come on until the selected temperature
is reached, then go off. It will cycle on
and off as the thermostat operates to
maintain the selected temperature.
To switch off the main oven, return the
main oven control knob to the “off”
position.

When using the oven
As part of the cooking process, hot air
is expelled through a vent at the rear
of the oven. When opening the oven
door, care should be taken to avoid
any possible contact with potentially hot
air, since this may cause discomfort to
people with sensitive skin. We recommend
that you hold the underneath of the
oven door handle.
The oven shelf must be positioned with
the upstand at the rear of the oven and
facing up.
The cooling fan
Position baking trays and roasting tins
on the middle of the shelves, and leave
one clear shelf position between
shelves, to allow for circulation of heat.
The cooling fan may operate when the
main oven is on and may continue to
operate for a period after the oven has
been switched off.

USING THE MAIN OVEN
Cooking with a fanned oven
Notes:
As this is a high efficiency oven,
you may notice the emission of
steam from the oven when the
door is opened. Please take
care when opening the door.
When 2 or more shelves are being
used, it may be necessary to increase
the cooking time slightly.
Because the 2 oven shelves are wider
than in many ovens, it is possible to
cook 2 items per shelf - eg; 2 victoria
sandwiches or 2 casseroles. Although
you need to keep in mind the point
from the previous page ‘To help the air
circulate freely’ with careful choice of
dishes and tins, it is possible to cook a
complete meal and perhaps something
else for the freezer in the oven at the
same time.
When roasting meats, you may notice
that fat splashing is reduced, which is due
in part to the lower oven temperatures,
and will help keep cleaning of the
oven to a minimum.
Because a fan oven has an even
temperature throughout the oven, no
shelf positions have been given in the
following baking guide, and there is
no need to interchange dishes onto
different shelves part way through
cooking, as with a conventional oven.
If you have been used to cooking with
a conventional oven, you will find a
number of differences to cooking with
a fanned oven, which will require a
different approach:
There are no zones of heat in a
fanned oven, the convection fan at the
back of the oven ensures an even
temperature throughout the oven. This
makes it ideal for batch baking - eg;
when planning a party or stocking the
freezer, as all items will be cooked
within the same length of time.
Foods are cooked at a lower temperature
than a conventional oven, so conven-
tional recipe temperatures may have
to be reduced. Please refer to the
conversion chart.
Pre-heating is generally not necessary
as a fan oven warms up quickly.
There is no flavour transference in a
fan oven, which means you can cook
strong smelling foods such as fish at
the same time as mild foods - eg; milk
puddings.
When batch baking foods that will rise
during cooking - eg; bread - always
ensure that enough space has been left
between shelves to allow for the rise.

Note: this is a high efficiency oven, therefore some adjustment will have to be
made to conventional cooking temperatures when using the fanned oven. The
table below shows conventional cooking temperatures, fanned oven temperatures
and gas marks. For optimum results, conventional temperatures need to be con-
verted to fanned temperatures.
For example, an item which would normally cook at a conventional temperature
of 180 ˚C, will now cook at the fanned temperature of 160˚C.

Roasting guide
Notes:
The times given in the roasting guide
are only approximate, because the
size and age of the bird will influence
cooking times as will the shape of a
joint and the proportion of the bone.
Frozen meat should be thoroughly
thawed before cooking. For large
joints it is advisable to thaw overnight.
Frozen poultry should be thoroughly
thawed before cooking. The time
required depends on the size of the
bird - eg; a large turkey may take up
to 48 hours to thaw.
Use of a trivet with a roasting tin will
reduce fat splashing and will help to keep
the oven interior clean. Alternatively,
to help reduce fat splashing, potatoes
or other vegetables can be roasted
around the meat / poultry.
•
•
•
When cooking stuffed meat or
poultry calculate the cooking time
from the total weight of the meat
plus the stuffing.
For joints cooked in foil or covered
roasters, and for lidded casseroles,
add 5 minutes per 450g (1lb) to
the calculated cooking time.
Smaller joints weighing less than

Traditional fruit cakes
It should be remembered that ovens
can vary over time, therefore cooking
times can vary, making it difficult to be
precise when baking fruit cakes.
It is necessary therefore, to test the
cake before removal from the oven.
Use a fine warmed skewer inserted
into the centre of the cake. If the
skewer comes out clean, then the cake
is cooked.
Roast turkey
Roasting turkey perfectly can prove
difficult, as you are cooking two
different types of meat - the delicate
light breast meat, which must not be
allowed to dry out, and the darker leg
meat, which takes longer to cook.
The turkey must be roasted long
enough for the legs to cook, so
frequent basting is necessary. The
breast meat can be covered once
browned.
•
Follow the temperatures recom-
mended in the recipe and then
adjust according to the conver-
sion guide on page 14.
•
Turkey should be roasted at
180˚C (conventional) 160˚C
(fanned) for 20 minutes per 1lb,
plus 20 minutes, unless packaging
advises otherwise.
•
Do not attempt to make Christmas
cakes larger than the oven can cope
with, you should allow at least
25mm (1 inch) space between the
oven walls and the tin.
•
The turkey can be open roasted,
breast side down, for half of the
cook time, and then turned over for
the remainder of the cooking time.
•
•
To protect a very rich fruit cake
during cooking, tie 2 layers of
brown paper around the tin.
We recommend that the cake tin is
not stood on layers of brown
paper, as this can hinder effective
circulation of air.
•
•
If the turkey is stuffed, add 5
minutes per 1lb to cook time.
If roasting turkey covered with
foil, add 5 minutes per 1lb to
cook time.
•
•
Do not use soft tub margarine for
rich fruit cakes, unless specified in
the recipe.
Always use the correct size and
shape of tin for the recipe quantities.
To test if the turkey is cooked, push a
fine skewer into the thickest part of the
thigh. If the juices run clear, the turkey
is cooked. If the juices are still pink,
the turkey will need longer cooking.

Automatic cooking
Do not
The automatic cooking facility is
controlled by the programmer (see
‘Programmer / Clock’ section) and
allows complete meals or individual
dishes to be cooked while you are out
of the house, to be ready for when you
return. The ‘READY TIME’ should be set
as close as possible to, or just after,
your anticipated return, so food is not
left standing in a warm oven.
•
Warm food should never be
placed in the oven if there is a
delay period.
Stews prepared by frying the
meat and vegetables first should
be cooked as soon as possible,
or refrigerated prior to placing in
the oven.
Some dishes are not suitable for
cooking on automatic - eg; dishes
containing left over meat or
poultry, dishes containing eggs,
cooked rice, or seafood.
Do not put food items (intended for
automatic cooking) into a warm
oven; allow the oven to cool before
setting for automatic cooking.
Do not over fill dishes containing
liquids, as they might boil over.
Never leave food in the oven to
cool slowly after cooking; serve
immediately or refrigerate.
Never use the automatic facility to
reheat ‘cook chill’ foods, as they
should go straight from the
refrigerator into a preheated oven.

Do
•
Select foods which are as fresh as
possible, and as cold as possible -
ie; preferably straight from the
refrigerator.
•
Choose foods which are suitable
for cooking from a cold start, as
some dishes will be affected by
being left uncooked, at room
temperature, perhaps for several
hours - eg; a wet filling on a
pastry base.

•
Make sure that meat and poultry
are thoroughly thawed (but still cold
from the refrigerator) before placing
them in the oven, and avoid using
rolled joints of meat, which can be
more susceptible to the growth of

Cover dishes with lids or foil to keep
the food moist, and protect from
possible contamination; the food
can be uncovered towards the end
of cooking to crisp and brown.

Hints for automatic cooking
Food is more susceptible to the growth
of food poisoning organisms in warm
conditions. If the weather is hot, either
take care to ensure that food is not left
standing in a warm oven, or avoid
using the automatic cooking facility.
•
Food is placed in a cold oven so
you will need to add about 10 - 15
minutes onto the cooking time to
allow for the oven to reach the
selected temperature.
Wine or beer may ferment, and
cream may curdle during the delay
period, so it is best to add these
ingredients just before serving.
Potatoes should be parboiled or
brushed with oil to prevent
discolouration during the delay
period.

Semi-automatic cooking
For the instructions on how to use both
of these functions, please see the fol-
lowing page.
There are two types of semi automatic
cooking available on this appliance.
Fully automatic cooking
This function incorporates both a dura-
tion and an end time and is meant to be
used when you wish to delay the start
time.
The oven must be switched on,
and in use to use either of these
functions successfully.
The Duration method allows you to set
the oven for a specific length of time.
If a dish needed 2 hours to cook, then
it would be possible for you to set the
oven to turn off 2 hours later. This
allows you to be sure that your food
will be cooked for a set length of time
and no longer.
We recommend that the first few times
this function is used you are in the
house, this will familiarise you with your
oven and prevents food from being over
cooked or under cooked.
Care must be taken when selecting
foods for this function, it is not recom-
mended for certain food items which
may spoil, or are sensitive to being left.
The End Time method allows you to
enter a specific time when you would
like the oven to switch off. If you wish
to leave the oven unattended, then it
offers peace of mind that the oven will
have turned itself off at the set time.
It is also advisable to set the end time to
be as close to your return as possible to
prevent food being left standing.
However, once the program is set then
it cannot be adjusted. Extra time can-
not be added, nor can the end time be
extended.
To cancel the semi automatic pro-
grams, press both the Plus and Minus
buttons together. This can be done at
any time during the cooking process.
Then if necessary, re program.

dishwasher, or with a nylon brush in
hot soapy water.
Always let the appliance cool
before cleaning.
Do not use a steam cleaner on
this appliance.
Some cooking operations generate
considerable amount of grease, this
combined with spillage can become a
hazard if allowed to accumulate on
the appliance through lack of
cleaning. In extreme cases this may
amount to misuse of the appliance and
could invalidate your guarantee.
It is recommended that the appliance
is cleaned after open roasting.
Do not use caustic, corrosive or
abrasive cleaning products, products
containing bleach, coarse wire wool
or any hard implements, as they will
damage the surfaces.
All parts of the appliance can be
safely cleaned with a cloth wrung out
in hot soapy water.
Vitreous enamel parts
GRILL PAN, TOP OVEN / GRILL COMPARTMENT,
MAIN OVEN COMPARTMENT

CARE & CLEANING
Glass parts
Stainless Steel surfaces (stainless
steel finish models only)
FACIA PANEL, DOOR PANELS
HANDLES, DOOR PANELS
Use a mild cream cleaner - eg; “Cif”.
Rinse thoroughly and dry with a soft
cloth.
Only use a clean cloth wrung out in hot
soapy water, and dry with a soft cloth.
Important: The inner door glass
panel(s) can be removed for cleaning,
but they must be replaced the right
way (so the reflective side faces
inwards) and also pushed fully in to
the stop position. To remove the glass
panel, open the door wide, hold the
edges of the glass and slide out.
Do not use undiluted bleach or any
products containing chlorides as they
can permanently damage the steel.
Extra care should be taken when cook-
ing food in salted water. Some foods
are corrosive - eg; vinegar, fruit juices
and especially salt - they can mark or
damage stainless steel if they are left
on the surface. Turn off and wipe any
spillage immediately, taking care to
avoid skin contact with any hot surface
or spillage.
Sharp objects can mark the surface of
stainless steel, but marks will become
less noticeable with time.
To maintain the finish of the stainless
steel, or to remove any greasy marks,
wipe the stainless steel surface sparingly
with a minimum amount of Baby Oil
and kitchen paper.
Painted, plastic and metal finish

CARE & CLEANING
Cleaning the hob
Ceramic glass surface
gain maximum life out of this product.
Occasional use will help prevent the
build up of mineral deposits which can
cause discolouration of the hob surface.
Do not use abrasive powder cleaners,
“Brillo” pads, metal wire, detergents,
bleaches, bath stain removers, or chemical
oven cleaners; all these product types
will damage the ceramic glass.
The following recommendations will
help to keep the ceramic glass surface
bright and clean.
Discolouration of the hob
Do not use a dishcloth or dish sponge
to wipe the hob - this can leave a film
of detergent on the surface which will
discolour the hob next time a heating
area is used. Clean cloths kept for the
cleaning of the hob can be used.
Do not use too much cleaner
conditioner - only a thin coating is
required, any excess may burn on and
discolour the hob when it is next in use.
If persistent stains or marks remain on
the ceramic glass surface, it can be
cleaned using a mild cream cleaner - eg;
“Cif”, or a ceramic hob scraper. This will
also remove any accumulated salts or
minerals before they have an opportunity
to discolour the ceramic glass.
Wipe clean with a damp paper towel
or clean damp cloth and re-apply
cleaner conditioner.
Allow the hob to cool.
Use a dampened paper towel or clean
damp cloth to apply a small dab of
cleaner conditioner to clean each
heating area.
Use another paper towel or a clean
dry soft cloth to wipe dry, and then
polish the whole glass surface.
To remove any stubborn marks or
heavy soiling, a non scratching, mild
cream cleaner may be used - eg; “Cif”.
Important: If you use a wet paper
towel or clean damp cloth to remove
spillage from a warm heating area of the
hob, be careful to avoid steam burns.
Care and maintenance
Before using the hob for the first time,
apply a thin coating of cleaner conditioner
(eg; “Hob Brite”, by Homecare*) to
the ceramic glass only, and polish the
surface with a clean cloth.
The conditioner gives a protective
covering to the ceramic glass which
not only makes the hob easier to
clean, but also ensures that you will
