each use. Always turn off the mains electricity

supply and allow the appliance to cool first.

• Spillage should be dealt with as soon as it
occurs, taking due care as the hob surface
may be hot. Any spillage left on the surface
after cooking should be cleaned off before
the hob is switched on again to prevent
baking on.

bleach products, harsh abrasives or chemical
cleaners for cleaning the oven inner panels.
