The hotplatethe crown and cap positions.
Clean the hotplate top using a mild abrasive such as
'Cif'. Take care not to damage the spark electrodes.
If the spark electrodes are damaged the burners will
not light.
You can remove the pan supports, burner caps and
burner crowns to clean them. Again take care not to
damage the spark electrodes.
If any food spills during cooking you can place the
pan on another burner to finish cooking. Then you
can remove the dirty parts and clean them before
the spill 'burns on'.
Clean the burner crowns by soaking them in very hot
soapy water. You can remove any stubborn stains
by scouring with a soap filed pad such as 'Brillo'. If
you look after the burner crowns in this way they will
stay reasonably clean. However the surface will dull
with time.
Aluminium based saucepans can leave shiny metal
marks on the pan supports. Clean the pan supports
regularly to remove the marks using a mild abrasive
like 'Cif' with a soft scourer. For more stubborn
marks you can use a soap-filled pad such as 'Brillo'.
After cleaning the appliance parts, dry them
thoroughly before you put them back.
